Alpine | 2 - moderate |
Treeline | 2 - moderate |
Below Treeline | 1 - low |
North-facing slopes in the alpine hold the best ski quality, but they also are concealing a reactive surface hoar layer. Folks in and around the region have been caught off-guard by this layer, resulting in several avalanche involvements.
Carefully assess your line for this weak layer before committing.
