Wind slabs have been very reactive in the region, but should be slowly gaining strength. They may remain triggerable on steep wind-loaded alpine slopes, including the lee sides of ridges and cross-loaded features.
Sunny, warmer periods can make wet loose avalanches more likely on steep slopes. Use appropriate sluff management techniques and avoid being under cornices or steep sunny features during the warmest parts of the day. Avalanche Summary Thursday
Wednesday
Looking Ahead
15 to 30 cm of storm snow from earlier this week is slowly bonding to an underlying crust. Reactive wind slabs may still exist at upper elevations on shady northerly through easterly slopes. Sun-affected slopes likely have a surface crust, which may melt and soften with daytime warming. The remaining snowpack has no current layers of concern, having undergone multiple melt-freeze cycles, forming a mix of crusts and dense, rounded snow. Lower elevations may have wet or isothermal snow to ground. Weather SummaryFriday Night More details can be found in the Mountain Weather Forecast. Confidence: moderateWe are uncertain about how quickly the snowpack will recover and gain strength. We are confident due to a stable weather pattern.

Sunny, warmer periods can make wet loose avalanches more likely on steep slopes. Use appropriate sluff management techniques and avoid being under cornices or steep sunny features during the warmest parts of the day. Avalanche Summary No recent avalanches have been reported. However, observations are extremely limited at this time of year. Looking ahead, some wet loose activity may be possible during the warmest parts of the day on sunny slopes. Small, isolated wind slabs may remain triggerable on lee alpine slopes. Snowpack SummarySoft, dry powder can still be found on shady upper elevation slopes. Storm snow from earlier in the week has largely settled and bonded to the underlying crust. Small, isolated wind slabs may still exist at upper elevations on northerly slopes. Sun-affected slopes have a hard surface crust, which will likely melt and soften with daytime warming, improving the riding quality. The remaining snowpack shows no concerning layers at this time, and areas below treeline are largely below the threshold for avalanche activity. Weather SummaryFriday Night More details can be found in the Mountain Weather Forecast. Confidence: moderateWe are uncertain due to a limited number of field observations. We have a good understanding of the snowpack structure and confidence in the weather forecast.
