Well a return to winter with -20s even forecast this upcoming week! Recent snow from the past few days is creating windslabs in alpine terrain along ridgelines. Pay attention as you move into wind affected terrain.
Windslabs can be found in the alpine along ridgelines and in gullied terrain. Watch for these along the entrances to runs and in open areas.
10-15cm of snow is forecast with day time highs are -8C and generally light winds. We were headed to spring, but are returning to winter here this next week!
No new avalanches observed or reported
On average 7cm of snow fell at treeline over the past 24hrs with a moderate NW flow at upper elevations. This snow is overlying a well settled snowpack on northern aspects and more of a spring crusty snowpack on the solar aspects. With the more northern flow, we may see isolated windslabs on all aspects in the alpine.
