Sheltered areas hold great riding conditions.
Low avalanche hazard still means small avalanches may be triggered in isolated areas or extreme terrain.
Avoid overhead exposure to cornices.
Minimal precipitation that is forecasted for Friday night is not expected to increase the expected size or reactivity of this problem.
Saturday:Cloudy with sunny periods and isolated flurries. Precipitation: Trace. Alpine temperature: High -7 °C. Ridge wind west: 15 km/h gusting to 45 km/h.
Sunday:Mainly cloudy with isolated flurries. Precipitation: Trace. Alpine temperature: Low -7 °C, High -4 °C. Mostly light ridge wind occasionally gusting to 40 km/h. Freezing level: 1600 metres
Sheltered areas hold up to 30cm low density snow over top a well settled mid pack. Moderate NW winds adding to cornice growth in the alpine; wind effect tree line and above. A crust down 25-40cm is decomposing and found below 2300m on S aspects. A widespread weak facet layer still lurks at the bottom of the snowpack all areas.
No new natural avalanche activity observed or reported in the last couple days.Local ski resort reported few small wind slab avalanches triggered by large explosives in steep alpine on Thursday.
