Only simple terrain with no exposure to overhead hazard is suitable for the current conditions. 

Storm slabs have the potential to step down and trigger large, destructive avalanches.

• Uncertainty is due to the limited number of field observations.

On Monday, several natural avalanches up to size 3 were observed from the road in White Pass. Check out this MIN for more details.

Observations are still limited at this time.

Up to 45 cm of new snow is now sitting on a heavily wind-affected and faceted snowpack.

Snowpack depths vary widely due to wind, but average around 150 cm across the region.

More details can be found in the Mountain Weather Forecast.

• Avoid exposure to overhead avalanche terrain; avalanches may run surprisingly far.
• Storm slabs in motion may step down to deeper layers resulting in large avalanches.
• Keep your guard up at lower elevations. Storms slabs have been reactive at all elevations.
