Danger ratingsProblemsDetails

Use good travel habits, and avoid stiff pockets of wind slab in steep terrain.
Cornices are large and fragile. Give them a wide berth, as even brief sun may trigger cornice failure.

Terrain and Travel Advice:
  • Be especially cautious as you transition into wind-affected terrain.
  • Pay attention to cornices and give them a wide berth when traveling on or below ridges.
  • Travel early on sun-exposed slopes before cornices weaken with daytime warming.
  • Use caution above cliffs and terrain traps where even small avalanches may have severe consequences.
Cornice cornice

Cornices are large and fragile. Avoid travelling on or under them.

Wind Slab

Small pockets of wind slab may still avalanche under the weight of a human. These could be larger than expected if they fail on or step down to the mid/late-March crust.

Avalanche Summary

On Friday and Saturday around Whistler, explosives avalanche control triggered large (size 2) cornice avalanches.

Snowpack Summary

40 to 60 cm of settling snow (possibly moist, possibly containing thin crusts) overlies a widespread, thick and hard crust below about 2200 m, and old wind-affected snow above 2200 m.

Steep south facing slopes may be crusty or moist depending on time of day and sun exposure.

On wind exposed alpine ridges, expect to find wind-scoured crust, or firm, wind affected snow.

The snowpack below the mid-March crust is wet but well settled and strong.

Weather Summary

Sunday Night

Mostly clear skies. 1 cm of snow. 25 km/h northwest ridgetop wind, decreasing to 10 km/h through the night. Treeline temperature -7 °C.

Monday

Sunny. 10 km/h northwest ridgetop wind. Treeline high -5 °C. Freezing level rising to 1000 m.

Tuesday

Mix of sun and clouds. 20 km/h southwest ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -5 °C.

Wednesday

Mostly cloudy. 2 to 5 cm of snow. 30 km/h south ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -3 °C.


More details can be found in the Mountain Weather Forecast.

Confidence: moderate
We are uncertain about how the timing or intensity of solar radiation will affect the snowpack.
We have a good understanding of the snowpack structure and confidence in the weather forecast.

Terrain and Travel Advice:
  • Pay attention to cornices and give them a wide berth when traveling on or below ridges.
  • Avoid shallow, rocky areas where the snowpack transitions from thick to thin.
  • Be alert to conditions that change with elevation, aspect, and exposure to wind.
  • Avoid terrain traps such as gullies and cliffs where the consequence of any avalanche could be serious.
Cornice cornice

Cornices are large and fragile. Even a small period of sun and warming may be enough to cause a cornice to fail.

Wind Slab

Small pockets of wind slab may still avalanche under the weight of a human.

Persistent Slab

Two crusts, buried in early February (facets on top) and March seem to be gaining strength. It's still smart to avoid thin, rocky areas on steep slopes, and avoid exposing yourself to slopes below large cornices.

Avalanche Summary

Both Thursday and Friday, large to very large (size 2-3) natural storm slab avalanches were reported near Anderson Lake.

The most recent avalanche on a persistent weak layer was reported on Monday, March 23 when an explosive triggered cornice fall stepped down to basal facets in a steep, rocky start zone.

Snowpack Summary

Expect to find 35 to 70 cm of settling snow over a widespread, thick and hard crust below about 1800 m, and old wind-affected snow at upper elevations.

Two crusts, buried in early February and March are still a concern, particularly in the Hurley area and zones to the north. Expect to find them around 1-1.5 meters below the snow surface. Of the two, only the early February crust has been reported to have loose, sugary facets on top.

Weather Summary

Sunday Night

Mostly clear skies. Up to 3 cm of snow. 20 km/h northwest ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -11 °C. Freezing level falling to valley bottom.

Monday

Sunny. 10 km/h northwest ridgetop wind. Treeline high -8 °C. Freezing level rising to 1100 m.

Tuesday

Mix of sun and clouds. 30 km/h southwest ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -8 °C.

Wednesday

Mix of sun and clouds. 1 to 3 cm of snow. 40 km/h south ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -6 °C.

More details can be found in the Mountain Weather Forecast.

Confidence: moderate
We are uncertain about how quickly persistent slabs are gaining strength.
