Sea To Sky

Continuously assess conditions as you gain elevation. Winter conditions persist at higher elevations.

New storm slabs could form where precipitation falls as snow.

No new avalanches have been reported in the past week.

If you have any recent photos or observations, please submit them to the Mountain Information Network, observations are limited in the spring.

Storm snow will continue to accumulate at higher elevations. This snow may overlie a crust that it might not bond well too. Below treeline rain will keep the surface wet or moist where snow still exists. Most below treeline terrain is already snow free.

• Make observations and assess conditions continually as you travel.
• Closely monitor how the new snow is bonding to the crust.
• The more the snow feels like a slurpy, the more likely loose wet avalanches will become.
• Expect shallow snow cover that barely covers ground roughness.
