South Coast

Watch for wind-loaded pockets especially around ridgecrest and in extreme terrain.

No recent avalanche observations have been reported in this region. However, data is currently very limited.

If you go into the backcountry, please consider submitting your observations to the Mountain Information Network.

Up to 15 cm of recent snow at upper elevations overlies either a crust or moist snow surfaces.

Snowpack is generally moist and isothermal in most locations.

Below treeline is either snow free or has very thin snow coverage. Expect difficult travel at lower elevations.

• When a thick, melt-freeze surface crust is present, avalanche activity is unlikely.
