Water Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 this isnt a troll right? http://www.nwac.us/forecast/avalanche/current/zone/13/ over the weekend, increasingly sunny skies and significant warming are likely, along with relatively light winds and freezing levels reaching 3-5000 ft Saturday and 7-10,000 ft Sunday. This should allow warming and sun related considerable to high avalanche danger to slowly progress to higher elevations, especially on more wind loaded terrain where recent wind slabs or cornices should warm, weaken and be easier to trigger, and on southeast to southwest exposures where increasingly large natural loose, wet loose and wet slab slides should become likely. As a result, while the clearing skies and benign looking weather may lure BC travelers into the mountains, climbers, skiers, boarders, snowmobilers, snowshoers and other adventurous folks are urged to make conservative decisions and use cautious route selections in the days ahead. Careful local snowpack evaluations are essential during these dangerous avalanche conditions, especially when traveling on sun exposed terrain and on higher elevation lee slopes on the volcanic peaks. The coming weekend is not shaping up to be a safe time to climb or travel on the southerly aspects of the volcanoes! Please ensure that you don't become a new statistic in this late season of abundance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
