Update 6:10 am: New snow and wind loading have formed reactive storm slabs, especially on north through east-facing slopes.
Stick to conservative terrain sheltered from the wind.

Terrain and Travel Advice:
  • Avoid avalanche terrain during periods of heavy loading from new snow, wind, or rain.
  • Strong wind is building wind slabs farther downslope than usual.
  • Back off if you encounter whumpfing, hollow sounds, or shooting cracks.
  • Start with conservative terrain and watch for signs of instability.
Storm Slab

New snow and strong wind has formed reactive storm slabs. The snow arrives with significant wind, expect deposits to be deeper on north through east aspects.

Avalanche Summary

On Monday, the region saw a widespread natural avalanche cycle up to size 3, which likely occurred during the storm.

Avalanche danger may spike on Wednesday afternoon with new snow and strong winds.

Snowpack Summary

Up to 60 cm of new storm snow has blanketed the region. This sits on a variety of surfaces, including old wind slab on all aspects, facets, and exposed crust. Expect the potential for a poor bond at the storm snow interface.

The early February crust/facet layer is down approximately 100 cm.

Another widespread crust and facet layer from late January is buried 120 to 160 cm deep.

The mid and lower snowpack is well settled and strong.

Weather Summary

Tuesday Night
Mostly cloudy. 1 to 5 cm of snow. 30 km/h west ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -5 °C.

Wednesday
Cloudy. 10 to 20 cm of snow. 50 gusting to 80 km/h west ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -5 °C.

Thursday
Cloudy. 10 to 25 cm of snow. 60 gusting to 100 km/h southwest ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -3 °C.

Friday
Mostly cloudy. 5 to 10 cm of snow. 50 km/h west ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -4 °C.

Terrain and Travel Advice:
  • Recent strong wind means wind slabs may be found farther downslope than expected.
  • Back off if you encounter whumpfing, hollow sounds, or shooting cracks.
  • Pay attention to isolated wind affected features in the alpine, as well as cross-loaded features at treeline.
  • Start with conservative terrain and watch for signs of instability.
Wind Slab

Recent snow accompanied by new strong winds Wednesday could form fresh wind slabs on north through east slopes.

Avalanche Summary

No new avalanches reported Tuesday.

On Sunday, several storm slabs up to size 1.5 were reported.

Human-triggered wind slabs are likely in the alpine and possibly treeline on Wednesday.

Snowpack Summary

Strong wind and new snow on Wednesday will likely form fresh and reactive wind slabs.

Up to 40 cm of recent storm snow rests on a variety of underlying surfaces, including wind-affected snow in the alpine, facets on north-facing aspects, and sun-affected snow on south-facing aspects. In areas where facets or crusts are present, expect the potential for a poor bond at the storm snow interface.

A crust from early February, buried 40 to 80 cm deep, appears to be well bonded to the overlying snow.

Snowpack depths at treeline range from 90 to 170 cm, tapering rapidly below treeline, particularly on south-facing aspects.

Weather Summary

Tuesday Night
Mostly cloudy. 30 km/h west ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -3 °C. Freezing level 900 m.

Wednesday
Cloudy. 4 to 10 cm of snow. 40 km/h west ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -3 °C. Freezing level 900 m.

Thursday
Cloudy. 10 to 35 cm of snow. 50 km/h west ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -2 °C. Freezing level 1100 m.

Friday
Mostly cloudy. 5 to 10 cm of snow. 40 km/h west ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -3 °C. Freezing level 900 m.

Terrain and Travel Advice:
  • Use increased caution at all elevations. Storm snow is forming touchy slabs.
  • Strong wind is building wind slabs farther downslope than usual.
  • Shooting cracks, whumpfs, and recent avalanches are strong indicators of an unstable snowpack.
  • Continue to make conservative terrain choices while the storm snow settles and stabilizes.
Storm Slab

Up to 40 cm of new snow may be forming reactive new slabs at all elevations, but will be particularly be prone to triggering on wind-loaded slopes near ridgetops.

Avalanche Summary

We are aware of an avalanche incident near Pemberton on Tuesday. Further details are not yet available, but will be provided when possible.

On Monday, the region saw numerous natural (size 1 to 2) storm slab avalanches and a smaller human-triggered (size 1) avalanche. Dry loose sluffing was reported from steep terrain features.

Strong westerly winds will be driving the avalanche danger on Wednesday. Natural avalanches are possible, and human-triggered likely.

Snowpack Summary

Up to 40 cm of new snow has blanketed the region. Strong southerly ridgetop winds have likely formed thicker and more reactive slabs on leeward slopes. The new snow sits over a variety of old snow surfaces, including surface hoar, crusts, and facets. Expect the potential for a poor bond at the storm snow interface.

Up to 100 cm is sitting over the early February crust. That crust is thin and breakable on northerly aspects to 2300 m, but thick on southerly aspects.

A widespread crust and facet layer from late January is buried around 100+ cm deep.

Weather Summary

Tuesday Night
Mostly cloudy. Trace of snow. 40 km/h west ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -8 °C.

Wednesday
Cloudy. 1 to 5 cm of snow. 50 gusting to 80 km/h southwest ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -7 °C.

Thursday
Cloudy. 3 to 10 cm of snow. 80 km/h southwest ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -5 °C.

Friday
Mostly cloudy. 5 cm of snow. 60 km/h west ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -6 °C.
