In sintesi

Strong southerly winds have formed fresh wind slab in leeward features.

Seek out terrain sheltered from the wind to find the best riding conditions and the lowest avalanche hazard.

    Several surface hoar layers are buried 70 to 110 cm deep across the region.

Confidence

Moderate

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

Avalanche Summary

No recent avalanches have been reported in this region.

If you do observe an avalanche, please post a MIN report.

Snowpack Summary

15 cm of new snow that fell with warm temperatures and strong southerly winds now overlies a previously wind-affected and faceted surface.

A layer of surface hoar has been observed at depths of 70 to 110 cm throughout the northwest inland region.

Snowpack depths vary throughout the region but are generally around 150-200 cm deep at treeline.

Terrain and Travel Advice

  • Watch for areas of hard wind slab on alpine features.
  • Watch for newly formed and reactive wind slabs as you transition into wind-affected terrain.
  • Surface hoar distribution is highly variable. Avoid generalizing your observations.
