In sintesi

Really going to have to curb your enthusiasm this weekend until the snowpack strengthens. Rapid ice developing on the parkway. Climbers need to carefully evaluate approach and overhead slopes and pack your avi gear.

Weather Forecast

Seasonally cold temperatures through the weekend. Winds expected to be moderate to strong, SW. Weather models really inconsistence on snowfall amounts; let's go with getting somewhere between 5 to 30cms!

Strong relentless winds has formed touchy wind slabs 50+cm on open features at TL and above. Trump crust down 70cms at 2200m, unreactive so far.

Avalanche Summary

Field team in Parkers and Hilda area. Limited alpine observations due to poor visibility. Natural activity limited to TL observations. 2 natural slides up to sz 2.5 on N and E aspects, 2200 to 2400ms. One possible skier triggered sz 1, 2200ms in the Christmas Trees above Hilda hostel.
