Below TreelineLowLowLow

Terrain and Travel Advice:
  • Be aware of the potential for large avalanches due to a buried crust.
  • In times of uncertainty, conservative terrain choices are our best defense.
  • Loose avalanches may start small, but they can grow and push you into dangerous terrain.
  • Pay attention to cornices and give them a wide berth when traveling on or below ridges.
Persistent Slab

A crust with facets above it has produced several accidental and remotely triggered avalanches. This layer is most likely to be triggered on north and east aspects in the alpine.

Wet Loose

Wet loose avalanches are likely in steep or extreme terrain when the snow surface is wet or slushy.

Avalanche Summary

Several size 1.5 to 2.5  skier and remotely triggered slab avalanches were reported in the region late last week. These avalanches predominantly occurred on north and east aspects in the alpine. They failed on a layer of facets over a crust from mid April. See photos below.

Over the weekend numerous wet loose avalanches up to size 2 were reported. These avalanches occurred primarily at treeline.

Snowpack Summary

A thin crust may exist early in the morning on most terrain but it will break down quickly. The snow below is likely moist or wet. The exception to this is high north facing terrain where dry snow could still exist.

A thick crust, with facets above it, can be found down 10 to 40 cm at treeline and above. Previous wind may have scoured exposed features back to this crust.

The mid and lower snowpack is well settled and strong. At low elevations the snowpack is disappearing quickly.

Weather Summary

Monday Night
Clear skies. 30 km/h southwest ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature 7 °C. Freezing level 2900 m.

Tuesday
Mostly sunny. 20 km/h west ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature 6 °C. Freezing level 2800 m.

Wednesday
Sunny. 30 km/h west ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature 3 °C. Freezing level 2300 m.

Thursday
Sunny. 40 km/h northwest ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature 0 °C. Freezing level 1900 m.

More details can be found in the Mountain Weather Forecast.

Confidence: moderate
We are uncertain about how the snowpack will react to the forecast weather.

Any surface crust that forms overnight will break down quickly. Start and finish your day early.
Wet loose avalanches are likely on steep slopes when the snow surface is wet.

Terrain and Travel Advice:
  • Back off slopes as the surface becomes moist or wet with rising temperatures.
  • Keep in mind that the high density of wet avalanches can make them destructive.
Wet Loose

Wet loose avalanches are likely in steep or extreme terrain when the snow surface is wet or slushy.

Avalanche Summary

A wet loose cycle has likely been occurring over the past couple days but we have not received reports of avalanches. Observations are very limited in the region right now.

Snowpack Summary

A thin crust may exist early in the morning but it will break down quickly. The snow below is likely wet.

A thick crust can be found down 10 to 30 cm at treeline and above. The snowpack below this crust is well settled and strong.

At low elevations the snowpack is disappearing quickly. Where snow remains it is likely isothermal.

Weather Summary

Monday Night
Clear skies. 10 km/h southwest ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature 11 °C. Freezing level 2900 m.

Tuesday
Sunny in the morning and increasing cloud in the afternoon. Chance of convective flurries. 1 mm of rain at treeline. 10 km/h west ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature 10 °C. Freezing level 2900 m.

Wednesday
Mix of sun and clouds. 1 to 3 mm of rain at treeline. 20 km/h southwest ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature 6 °C. Freezing level 2600 m.

Thursday
Sunny. 20 km/h west ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature 4 °C. Freezing level 2100 m.

More details can be found in the Mountain Weather Forecast.

Confidence: moderate
We have a good understanding of the snowpack structure and confidence in the weather forecast.
