In sintesi

Dense, persistent slabs exist on a variety of aspects. Skiers and riders cold trigger these slabs in steep, avalanche-prone terrain, and previous tracks are not necessarily an indicator of stability. If clear skies persist throughout the day, these slabs may become more susceptible to failure on sunlit aspects.

    Recently developed, dense surface slabs with depths of one to two feet lie upon well-developed surface hoar. While these persistent slabs are gaining strength and becoming more difficult to trigger, a variety of aspects remain suspect at the mid and upper elevations. Some potential may persist for backcountry travelers to trigger an isolated pocket of shallow slab at the lower elevations in areas without significant rain crusts.

Avalanche Discussion

A weak and fast moving system will move in from the north and bring a chance for localized light snow to fall tonight into Friday morning. During the day skies will be mostly to partly cloudy and temperatures are to rise into the mid twenties at all elevations.The general avalanche hazard will continue to be Moderate above 7500 feet where dense slabs could be triggered in steep terrain with one to two foot depths where they lie upon weak faceted snow. A slight chance remains to trigger deeper slabs, particularly in north facing terrain at the togwotee area. Avalanches below 7500 feet are not likely except for in isolated pockets in very steep terrain.
