In sintesi

We have transitioned to spring danger ratings. Dry snow can be found on the highest north faces, and travel below treeline remains good provided there is an overnight freeze.

    Daytime warming, the strong spring sun, and rain will all increase the potential for loose wet avalanches to occur. Start and end your day early before surface crusts have a chance to break down.

Snowpack Summary

In most areas we are seeing a typical spring snowpack with crusts breaking down in the heat of the day. Steep north facing alpine terrain is still holding dry snow. The midpack is generally moist and well settled.

Avalanche Summary

No new recent avalanches observed.
