Start small if you're poking into avalanche terrain on Sunday and be ready to dial back your terrain selection with any signs of instability.

Terrain and Travel Advice:
  • Continue to make conservative terrain choices while the storm snow settles and stabilizes.
  • Be alert to conditions that change with elevation, aspect, and exposure to wind.
  • Watch for newly formed and reactive wind slabs as you transition into wind-affected terrain.
  • Back off slopes as the surface becomes moist or wet with rising temperatures.
Storm Slab

It will take time for the new snow from Saturday's storm to form a reliable bond with the previous surface crust. Steep, wind-loaded features will be the most likely to trigger.

Wet Loose

Strong sunshine will destabilize snow on south-facing slopes on Sunday. This problem will likely be limited to new snow accumulations.

Avalanche Summary

Early reports from Saturday's storm in the Whistler area showed ski cutting and explosives producing size 1 releases in ridgetop lees in the morning, with snow and wind ongoing.

Slabs formed at higher elevations, especially where wind loaded, will remain a concern for Sunday.

Snowpack Summary

Saturday's storm should leave us with 20 to 40 cm of windblown new snow above treeline, tapering to a rain-soaked surface below treeline.

Where new snow accumulated, it mostly buried a widespread thin crust, thickest on sun-exposed slopes. It may add to dry snow on the region's highest north-facing slopes.

Below the evolving surface, a wind-redistributed 15-50 cm of older snow, some moist and settled, some dry and faceted, sits on the thick late-January crust. A few areas are more problematic with only 5 cm of lower density faceted snow above the crust.

The mid and lower snowpack are well settled and strong.

Weather Summary

Saturday Night
Becoming partly cloudy as the storm finishes with about 5 cm of new snow above 1500 m. 20 to 50 km/h southwest ridgetop wind, easing. Treeline temperature falling to -3 °C as freezing level drops to 1200 m.

Sunday
Sunny. 20 km/h southwest ridgetop wind, easing a bit. Treeline temperature -2 °C. Freezing level 1300 m.

Monday
Becoming cloudy with flurries bringing up to 5 cm of new snow. 20 km/h south ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -4 °C.

Tuesday
Cloudy with flurries continuing from overnight bringing 5 to 20 total cm of new snow. 10 to 30 km/h southwest ridgetop wind, easing. Treeline temperature -3 °C.

More details can be found in the Mountain Weather Forecast.

Confidence: moderate
We are uncertain about alpine conditions due to limited field observations.

Alpine conditions remain uncertain in the wake of the storm. Take an assessment mindset if you are probing into higher elevations and raise your guard if you encounter wind-loaded new snow.

Terrain and Travel Advice:
  • Wind slabs are isolated, but may remain reactive.
  • Avalanche activity is unlikely when a thick melt-freeze crust is present on the snow surface.
  • Rocks will heat up with daytime warming and may become trigger points for loose wet avalanches.
Wind Slab

Wind loaded dry new snow accumulations in high alpine areas may remain reactive to human triggers on Sunday. This problem won't exist where a crust has formed on the surface.

Wet Loose

Periods of sunshine may destabilize snow on south-facing slopes on Sunday. This problem will likely be limited to new snow accumulations.

Avalanche Summary

We don't have reports from Saturday's storm yet, but it's possible a small natural avalanche cycle took place at highest elevations where new snow accumulated, was blown around by extreme winds, and impacted by rain. Limited wind slab hazard may still exist in the high alpine.

No new or even recent avalanche activity has been reported during the extended snowfall drought.

Snowpack Summary

A crust should form on the surface in most areas Saturday night but break down with solar warming on Sunday. In the highest alpine, 10 to 20 cm of dry snow may have accumulated in the storm. Any accumulations will taper sharply with elevation.

Where snow did accumulate, it would bury a widespread crust over a thoroughly settled snowpack. Average treeline snow depth is 70 to 150 cm. The snowpack tapers rapidly with elevation, especially on sun-facing slopes.

Weather Summary

Saturday Night
Becoming partly cloudy. 10 to 40 km/h west ridgetop wind, easing. Treeline temperature 0 °C. Freezing level 1300 m.

Sunday
Mostly sunny. 5 to 10 km/h southwest ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature 0 °C. Freezing level 1400 m.

Monday
Becoming cloudy with flurries bringing 5 to 10 cm of new snow. 20 to 30 km/h southwest ridgetop wind, increasing. Treeline temperature -2 °C. Freezing level 1100 m.

Tuesday
Cloudy with flurries continuing from overnight bringing 15 to 30 total cm of new snow. 10 to 30 km/h south ridgetop wind, easing in the evening. Treeline temperature -2 °C. Freezing level 1000 m.

Terrain and Travel Advice:
  • Watch for newly formed and reactive wind slabs as you transition into wind-affected terrain.
  • Stay off recently wind loaded slopes until they have had a chance to stabilize.
  • Back off slopes as the surface becomes moist or wet with rising temperatures.

Wet Loose

Strong sunshine will destabilize snow on south-facing slopes on Sunday. This problem will likely be limited to new snow accumulations.

Avalanche Summary

Early reports from Saturday's storm in the Whistler area showed ski cutting and explosives producing size 1 releases in ridgetop lees in the morning, with snow and wind ongoing.

No reports yet from the Duffey, but slabs formed at higher elevations, especially where wind loaded, will remain a concern for Sunday.

On Friday, explosives control in the Duffey produced one size 1.5 avalanche that failed on basal facets in an area of very shallow snowpack.

Snowpack Summary

Saturday's storm should leave us with 15 to 30 cm of windblown new snow above treeline, tapering to a rain-soaked surface below about 1500 m.

Where new snow accumulated, it mainly buried a widespread crust, mostly thin but more supportive on sun-exposed slopes. It may add to heavily wind-affected dry snow on north-facing slopes above 2200 m.

Below the evolving surface, the thick late-January crust sits under about 40 cm of old snow. This snow is moist below 2000 m but may contain facets on higher north aspects.

The mid to lower snowpack is generally well settled and strong. Snowpack depth ranges from 150 to 250 cm at treeline elevations.

Weather Summary

Saturday Night
Becoming mostly clear after the storm finishes with 5 to 10 cm of new snow. 20 - 50 km/h southwest ridgetop wind, easing. Treeline temperature falling to -6 °C.

Sunday
Sunny. 20 to 30 km/h southwest ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature falling to -6 °C. Freezing level 1400 m

Monday
Becoming mostly cloudy with isolated flurries. 30 to 40 km/h southwest ridgetop wind, increasing. Treeline temperature -6 °C. Freezing level 1200 m.

Tuesday
Mostly cloudy with isolated flurries. 20 to 40 km/h southwest ridgetop wind, easing. Treeline temperature -6 °C. Freezing level 1300 m.
