Terrain and Travel Advice:
  • Be alert to conditions that change with elevation, aspect, and exposure to wind.
  • Be careful with wind-loaded pockets, especially near ridge crests and rollovers.
  • Recent strong wind means wind slabs may be found farther downslope than expected.
  • Be aware of the potential for loose avalanches in steep terrain where snow hasn't formed a slab.
  • Pay attention to cornices and give them a wide berth when traveling on or below ridges.
Wind Slab

Approach steep slopes near ridge crests with caution.

Recent strong wind means that wind slab could be found farther downslope than expected.

Dry Loose

Loose avalanches are more likely in steep terrain during periods of strong solar input.

Avalanche Summary

Over the past 3 days several, small  wind slab and dry loose avalanches have been observed in the region. These avalanches were triggered naturally and by skiers in steep terrain.

Snowpack Summary

10 to 25 cm of recent snow with moderate to strong southerly wind has buried a variety of surfaces including a layer of surface hoar in sheltered treeline features and a sun crust on east through west aspects. The surface is expected to become moist on sun exposed slopes during the day.

The early February crust/facet layer is down 30 to 60 cm.

Another widespread crust and facet layer from late January is buried 40 to 100 cm deep.

The mid and lower snowpack is well settled and strong.

Weather Summary

Tuesday Night
Mostly clear skies. 10 km/h west ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -8 °C.

Wednesday
Mix of sun and clouds. 1 cm of snow. 10 km/h west ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -10 °C.

Thursday
Sunny. 20 km/h northeast ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -12 °C.

Friday
Mostly sunny. 20 km/h southwest ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -10 °C.

More details can be found in the Mountain Weather Forecast.

Confidence: moderate
We are uncertain about how the timing or intensity of solar radiation will affect the snowpack.

Carefully assess steep lines for wind slab.
Wind slabs are likely to be largest and most reactive in steep alpine features.

Terrain and Travel Advice:
  • Carefully evaluate steep lines for wind slabs.
  • Be aware of the potential for loose avalanches in steep terrain where snow hasn't formed a slab.
  • A hard crust on the snow surface will help strengthen the snowpack, but may cause tough travel conditions.
Wind Slab

Recent snow and moderate southerly wind have formed wind slabs at treeline and above. The most reactive slabs will be found in  the alpine.

Avalanche Summary

Some sluffing was reported on Monday. No other avalanches have been reported since Saturday, when a skier triggered a wind slab on a northeast facing alpine slope near Sky Pilot.

Snowpack Summary

15 to 40 cm of snow overlies the early February crust with the deepest deposits on northerly aspects at treeline and above. This snow is reported to be well bonded to the crust.

The remainder of the snowpack is well-bonded.

The snowpack depth at treeline ranges from 90 to 170 cm. The snowpack depth tapers rapidly below treeline, especially on south aspects.

Weather Summary

Tuesday Night
Mostly cloudy. 2 to 5 cm of snow. 10 km/h southwest ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -6 °C.

Wednesday
Mostly cloudy in the morning and clearing in late afternoon. 1 to 2 cm of snow. 10 km/h southeast ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -7 °C.

Thursday
Sunny. 1 cm of snow. 10 km/h east ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -8 °C.

Friday
Mostly sunny. 10 km/h southwest ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -7 °C.

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

Terrain and Travel Advice:
  • Be alert to conditions that change with elevation, aspect, and exposure to wind.
  • Pay attention to isolated wind affected features in the alpine, as well as cross-loaded features at treeline.
  • Be aware of the potential for loose avalanches in steep terrain where snow hasn't formed a slab.
  • Pay attention to cornices and give them a wide berth when traveling on or below ridges.
Dry Loose

Loose avalanches will be more likely in steep terrain during periods of strong solar input.

Avalanche Summary

Over the past week, several, small  wind slab and dry loose avalanches have been observed in the region. These avalanches were triggered naturally and by skiers in steep terrain on a variety of aspects.

Snowpack Summary

5 to 20 cm of recent snow with moderate to strong southwest wind has formed deeper deposits on leeward slopes but may have scoured the surface back to a crust on windward terrain and ridge tops. This snow overlies a layer of surface hoar on sheltered features.

20 to 40 cm sits over the early February crust that is thin and breakable on northerly aspects to ~2300 m and thick on southerly aspects.

A widespread crust and facet layer from late January is buried 30 to 80 cm deep.

The mid and lower snowpack is generally well settled and strong.

Weather Summary

Tuesday Night
Mostly clear skies. 10 km/h northwest ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -15 °C.

Wednesday
Mix of sun and clouds. 10 km/h west ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -15 °C.

Thursday
Mostly sunny. 20 km/h north ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -17 °C.

Friday
Mix of sun and clouds. 20 km/h west ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -12 °C.

More details can be found in the Mountain Weather Forecast.

Confidence: moderate
We are uncertain due to the variability of wind effect on the snowpack.
We are uncertain about how the timing or intensity of solar radiation will affect the snowpack.
