This blog is intended to provide hazard and mountain condition information to help plan safer mountain trips.

A milder southerly airstream has brought thawing conditions. The snow pack is wet. There is still good snow cover above 300 metres. Snow has melted on some paths exposing slippy icy sections, elsewhere one sinks through the snow so travel on foot is difficult.
