Fall is here along with cooler temperatures and snow in the high alpine. Pay attention to local snow amounts and watch out for deeper accumulations in alpine lee and gully features.

Regular forecasting will begin November 1st.

The early season snowpack is typically thin and widely variable, presenting deep drifts and areas scoured to the ground. Localized pockets of wind slab are common, meaning it can be easy to step from dry ground into a windslab, so watch carefully for these pockets of snow
