Avalanche Rating

Be sure to verify conditions before committing to steep slopes and back off if the snow is wet and slushy. Start your day early and end early.

Snowpack Discussion
A typical spring diurnal pattern is in effect at upper elevations. Daytime warming moistens the upper snowpack, and overnight cooling usually forms a hard crust at higher elevations. Lower elevations may not refreeze and are experiencing an all-melt, no freezescenario and melting out quickly.
Avalanche Activity
No recent avalanches have been reported. Looking ahead, rising freezing levels with minimal to no overnight refreeze may increase the likelihood of wet loose avalanches and cornice failures.
With limited observations this time of year, sharing your photos and observations on the Mountain Information Network helps everyone stay informed.
