Many small wet loose and slab avalanches were observed during warm weather over the past few days. They've been observed on all aspects and elevations.Looking forward, avalanche activity is expected to slowly decrease as cooler and cloudier weather arrives. Until that happens, continue to travel conservatively anywhere the snow surface is wet and slushy and near cornices.

Wet snow exists to mountain top, which will slowly freeze into a melt-freeze crust at higher elevations as cooler weather arrives. The snow surface will remain wet on sun-exposed slopes and at lower elevations.Various hard crusts are found in the top half of the snowpack. In the high alpine near Invermere, a layer of weak facets may persist above one of these crusts, found 30 to 80 cm deep.The snowpack continues to melt below treeline.
