Snowpack Discussion

Up to 25 cm of snow overlies a crust from rain last week. At upper elevations, this has likely been redistributed by the wind.

The remainder of the snowpack is strong, with various hard layers and crusts.

Avalanche Activity

No new avalanches have been reported since before last weekend.

Looking forward, lingering pockets of wind slab at upper elevations will be the main concern.
