In sintesi

Watch for surface snow losing cohesion. Rocks will warm fastest and become likely trigger points for wet avalanches.

Avalanche Summary

No new avalanches have been reported recently.

Small pockets of wind slab may be found on high elevation slopes near ridgelines, and small wet loose avalanches are possible on Sunday in areas that see strong sun.

Snowpack Summary

Dry snow may exist on high elevation north-facing slopes. A crust exists elsewhere, including to mountain top on south facing slopes. Below the crust the snowpack is isothermal.

Terrain and Travel Advice

  • Make observations and continually assess conditions as you travel.
  • Avalanche activity is unlikely when a thick melt-freeze crust is present on the snow surface.
  • Back off slopes as the surface becomes moist or wet with rising temperatures.
