The break from storms may not be long enough to explore new terrain. Watch for new reactive slabs as the next wave arrives this afternoon.

Daily Snow Forecasts
British Columbia
Next storm + warm-up on Saturday-Sunday
Updated 20 hours ago
Whistler, Revelstoke, Kicking Horse, and Fernie all picked up >17 cm of snow over the past 24 hours as of Friday morning, while Powder King was slammed the day prior. The next storm will impact BC on Saturday-Sunday but warmer air will result in a change-over to rain for many areas with the upper slopes of Revelstoke & Kicking Horse remaining all-snow with heavy amounts possible.
US and Canada
Big storm for New England as the East remains active
Updated 1 day ago
A strong storm will bring heavy snow to Northern New England on Friday and early Saturday. Overall, the pattern will remain most active across Eastern North America for the next 10 days with additional snow chances along with cold temperatures. Western Canada will remain in an active but warm pattern with heavy snow for high elevation resorts in BC & Alberta.
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
Storm slabs from the recent snowfall are settling, but remain sensitive to human triggers.
The new snow and total snowpack are significantly deeper in the Pine Pass area than the rest of the region. Strong southwesterly winds and warm temperatures have made conditions quite variable depending on elevation and wind exposure.
Recent observations suggest treeline snow depths are around 80-140 cm with very little snow below 1400 m in much of the region except for the Pine Pass area which now has enough snow below treeline to avalanche.
A series of storms over the past few weeks delivered about 40-80 cm of snow, which sits above an early season crust(s). Reports indicate the snow has generally bonded well to the early season crusts. Exceptions may be shallow alpine slopes along the eastern side of the Rockies towards Jasper.
Avalanche Activity
There is evidence that an avalanche cycle occurred in the north of the region during the storm. Avalanches ranged from size 1 to size 2.5, with the majority starting around treeline.
If you are getting out in the mountains, we strongly encourage people to share observations on the Mountain Information Network.
