Final Post of the 2024-2025 Season
Updated 2 weeks ago Bob Ambrose
With Lake Louise and Marmot Basin closing this past weekend, and Sunshine Village in good shape to make it to Slush Cup on May 19, Alberta’s 6-month-long, 24/25 ski season is nearing its end. In this closing post, I’ll give a chronological overview of the season’s snowfall, highlight a few deep cycles, and showcase lots of powdery images from an overall variable ski season that ended with a bang.
Avalanche Forecast
Avalanche Forecasts are for use by experienced backcountry travelers in uncontrolled sidecountry and backcountry terrain. These forecasts and conditions do not apply to open, in-bounds terrain at ski resorts, which is subject to avalanche control by local resort ski patrol.

Snowpack Discussion
Even though it is spring, we can still get winter-like storms with corresponding avalanche problems. The deep persistent problem persists and we will likely continue to see large deep avalanches with heating, rain, or large triggers, such as cornice failures.
Click here for a description of the four spring potential avalanche scenarios.
Check the Avalanche Canada page for any recent MINs (mountain information network) or MCRs (directly mountain condition reports).
Avalanche Activity
Check the Avalanche Canada map page for any recent local MINs (mountain information network) or for MCRs click here: mountain condition reports.
