Avalanche Summary

We haven't received any reports of recent avalanche activity.

Please consider submitting your observations to the MIN if you head to the backcountry.

Snowpack Summary

Around 5 to 10 cm of new snow sits on a hard melt-freeze crust except for shady high alpine slopes, where it sits on faceted snow over a hard crust. Thicker deposits may exist in lee terrain features near mountain tops. The snow surface on sun-exposed slopes will moisten during sunny skies and freeze into a crust overnight.

Weak faceted grains above a hard crust that formed in early February is buried about 50 to 110 cm deep. This layer is currently dormant.

Terrain and Travel Advice

  • The more the snow feels like a slurpy, the more likely loose wet avalanches will become.
  • Avoid shallow, rocky areas where the snowpack transitions from thick to thin.
