Avalanche Bulletin

Lingering wind slabs may be reactive in leeward terrain features. Monitor surface conditions as you travel, especially as you transition into wind affected terrain.

TreelineLowLowLow
Below TreelineLowLowLow

Terrain and Travel Advice:
  • Watch for newly formed and reactive wind slabs as you transition into wind-affected terrain.
  • Be careful with wind-loaded pockets, especially near ridge crests and rollovers.
  • Back off slopes as the surface becomes moist or wet with rising temperatures.
Wind Slab

Look for wind affected snow around ridgelines. The most reactive slabs will likely be found on east and north facing slopes, however older and more stubborn slabs may linger on west facing slopes.

Avalanche Summary

One large slab avalanche (size 2.5) was seen from a steep south aspect. Reports suggest it was several days old.

Wind slabs continue to linger in the region, with reports indicating they are stubborn to rider triggering.

Observations remain limited this early in the season. If you head into the backcountry, please post to the Mountain Information Network.

Snowpack Summary

Surface conditions vary from wind affected surfaces in exposed terrain at higher elevations, and settling snow in sheltered areas that may include a layer of surface hoar buried 5 to 10 cm deep. Warmer temperatures will likely affect the surface snow and produce a crust overnight.

The mid snowpack is generally well settled, with an early November crust buried 50 to 100 cm deep. This layer is understood to be more notable in the Selkirk Mountains.

Snow depths at treeline are roughly 80 to 150 cm, and decrease rapidly at lower elevations.

Weather Summary

Tuesday Night

Partly cloudy. 15 to 40 km/h west ridgetop winds. Treeline temperatures around -5 °C with an above-freezing layer bringing the alpine temperatures to 0 °C.

Wednesday

Cloudy with sunny periods. 15 to 30 km/h southwest ridgetop wind. The above-freezing layer brings alpine temperatures around +1 °C. Treeline temperatures near -2 °C.

Thursday

Cloudy with isolated flurries possible for the Cariboos. Sunnier skies further south. 20 to 40 km/h southwest ridgetop wind. The above-freezing layer brings alpine temperatures around +2 °C. Treeline temperatures near -1 °C.

Friday

Mostly cloudy. New snow 5 cm. 15 to 35 km/h southwest ridgetop wind. Alpine temperatures near -3 °C.

More details can be found in the Mountain Weather Forecast.

Confidence: moderate
Uncertainty is due to the limited number of field observations.
Confidence is due to a stable weather pattern with little change expected.

An inversion in the region will bring warm temps to the Alpine. A blanket of valley cloud will give the appearance of a grey day, but the sun will be shining strong on Southerly aspects.
Warming temps may trigger loose, wet sluffs from steep S-facing terrain, as well as increase the reactivity of wind slabs.


WednesdayThursdayFriday
AlpineModerateModerateModerate
TreelineModerateLowModerate
Below TreelineLowLowLow

Terrain and Travel Advice:
  • Avoid steep, sun-exposed slopes when the air temperature is warm or when solar radiation is strong.
  • Wind slabs are isolated, but may remain reactive.
Wet Loose

Rapid warming in the Alpine, coupled with direct sun, may create a few days of loose/moist sluffs from steep solar aspects. This may be hard to identify with valley cloud blocking your view into the Alpine, but be aware that the sun is shining strong up high!

Wind Slab

Pockets of stubborn wind slab can be found in wind-exposed Alpine terrain.

Avalanche Summary

Sluffing in steep terrain has been reported by multiple parties in MIN reports over the past few days.

No new natural avalanche activity reported over the past 3 days.

Snowpack Summary

Surface hoar adorns the snowpack at Treeline elevations and up. Below this, 20-40cm of low density snow sits on various old surfaces, including: wind affect in exposed Alpine terrain; a crust on solar aspects; and settled storm snow in sheltered terrain.

The Nov 9 crust is down 50-100cm. The base of the snowpack is comprised of several dense, melt-freeze rain crusts formed in October.

Treeline snowpack depths average 110-130cm, falling to 45cm at Rogers Pass (1315m).

Weather Summary

An inversion brings WARM air aloft with valley cloud keeping it grey down below.

Tonight: Cloudy, Alp low 1°C, mod W winds, 1300m Freezing Level (FZL)

Wed: Sun and cloud, Alp high 2°C, light SW winds, 2000m FZL

Thurs: Sun and cloud, Alp high 1°C, light SW winds,1500m FZL.

Fri: Flurries, 10cm, Alp high -3°C, light SW winds,1500m FZL.

Confidence: moderate
Uncertainty is due to the timing or intensity of solar radiation and its effect on the snowpack.
