Travel Advice

  • Carefully evaluate steep lines for wind slabs.
  • Investigate the bond of the recent snow before committing to your line.
  • Pay attention to cornices and give them a wide berth when traveling on or below ridges.
Confidence

We are confident due to a stable weather pattern.

Snowpack

Spring flurries have created variable accumulations, with 10 to 40 cm of low-density snow in sheltered areas. A crust is on the surface on all sun exposed slopes, it may soften with solar input.A thick crust is buried 30 to 70 cm deep, but may remain exposed in wind-scoured alpine terrain. It extends up to at least 2000 m in the Rockies and 2300 m in the North Thompson.Below the crust, the snowpack is strong and well bonded.

Recent Avalanche Activity

Very limited avalanche activity was reported since last week. A few small (size 1) dry loose avalanches were reactive to riders over the weekend, and one natural size 2.5 wind slab was observed on a north-facing alpine slope in the Rockies.
