In sintesi

Normal cautions should be sufficient to manage any alpine hazards lingering in the region. Pray for snow!

Snowpack Summary

High freezing levels over the weekend produced moist surface snow up to 2000 m, now a crust. Wind has stripped open and alpine terrain and there is little snow left for transport. Forecast trace flurries will do little to change this picture over the next few days.

The mid-pack continues to settle and consolidate. Basal facets are found in the bottom 20-40 cm.
