It’s a great time to head into the mountains.Loose wet avalanches are most likely on steep, sun-affected slopes once the surface snow warms, becomes wet, and loses cohesion.
Danger by Elevation
Active Avalanche Problems
Wet loose avalanches and cornice falls were last reported on Wednesday.
A surface crust may exist early in the morning, but we expect it to break down quickly on sun exposed slopes, and at low elevations with sunshine and warming. The snow below is likely moist or wet. Dry snow may still exist on the highest north-facing slopes.A thick crust, with possible facets above it, exists 10–50 cm deep at treeline and above. Previous winds may have scoured exposed features down to this crust.The mid and lower snowpack is well settled and strong. At low elevations, the snowpack is disappearing quickly.
