Snowpack Discussion
A thin surface crust is expected to cover up to 25 cm of recent snow at upper elevations. This snow overlies a robust crust everywhere except northerly aspects in the alpine.
Most terrain has undergone strong melt-freeze cycles, but the snowpack remains slightly more complex on north-facing alpine slopes, where buried weak layers may still be present.
Avalanche Activity
Wet loose avalanches have been occurring on steep slopes facing the sun. Mostly small, but some large avalanches (size 2 to 3).
