Avalanche Summary

Natural avalanche activity has decreased since the weekend, but explosives triggered slab avalanches up to size 2 on Wednesday.

Light to moderate winds in the forecast could form wind slabs in exposed terrain, particularly near ridgelines.

If you head out please consider submitting a MIN report.

Snowpack Summary

40 to 60 cm of snow from the past week remains soft in sheltered areas but may have formed reactive slabs in wind-affected terrain, particularly near ridgelines. The snowpack has a crust near the ground, with total snow depths of 100 to 150 cm at treeline.
