In sintesi

Choose your ski line to avoid cross loaded terrain features in the alpine where a small windslab avalanche could occur.

Problemi valanghivi

  • Wind Slabs

    • Alta quota
    • Limite del bosco
    • Sotto il limite del bosco
    Probabilità
    Possible
    Dimensione
    1–2
    Strong winds are redistributing snow into slabs on sheltered aspects and cross loaded features in the alpine.

  • Deep Persistent Slabs

    • Alta quota
    • Limite del bosco
    • Sotto il limite del bosco
    Probabilità
    Unlikely - Possible
    Dimensione
    2–3
    Natural and human triggering is unlikely but it is still a good practice to avoid steep, open, rocky slopes with a shallow snowpack.

Weather Forecast

Snow flurries are expected in the icefields area through Monday with very little accumulation. This will translate to light showers in the valley bottoms.  Cloudy skies with occasional sunny periods and scattered snow flurries will  carry on through the week with more snow accumulating in the icefields area.

Snowpack Summary

A supportive mid pack consisting of rounded and facetted layers is bridging the weak depth hoar/facet layers that make up the lower snowpack. Some wind slabs are developing in sheltered alpine locations on various aspects from recent NW to SW winds.

Avalanche Summary

No new avalanches reported

Confidence

Forecast snowfall amounts are uncertain on Tuesday
