Avalanche conditions

• 30cm + of new snow, or significant drifting, or rain in the last 48 hours.
• Rapid temperature rise to near or above 0°C or wet surface snow.

Soggy conditions on isothermal snowpack all the way to the top of Mt Seymour. We triggered numerous wet loose (size 0.5 to 1.5 - the steeper the slope the bigger the sluff. Basically anything remotely steep would go on very slow very wet sluff).

Numerous glide cracks opening up everywhere - some of them as wide a meter.

Snowpack still very thick above 900 m.
