Snowpack Discussion

Surfaces continue to facet under generally cool and clear weather conditions. A crust is present on most south-facing terrain and lower elevations, while previously wind-affected surfaces can be found in exposed alpine terrain. Small, isolated wind slabs may exist in high alpine terrain, particularly on steep slopes near mountain tops and ridge crests.

The mid and lower snowpack is generally well-settled and bonded with no layers of concern.

Avalanche Activity

No recent avalanche activity has been reported.

If you are headed into the backcountry please consider submitting a MIN report.
