At this time there is a divide in elevation. Above 1800m, in the alpine, conditions are firm and very icy in places.
In the sub-alpine, below 1800m, travel conditions are more challenging as the snowpack is isothermal.

Daily Discussion
With colder temperatures at night and warmer temperatures during the day, the avalanche danger is variable and can range from Low to High. Travelling early in the day is recommended. Be aware that conditions can change rapidly in short periods of time with daytime warming. Pay careful attention to the integrity of the surface crusts formed overnight and rising air temperatures during the day.
Confidence: STRONG
We need your eyes too. If you’ve been in the backcountry we’d love to know what you have seen. Every little bit helps.
