Avalanche warning in effect for eastern B C and western Alberta

Avalanche warnings in effect for areas highlighted in red. (Avalanche Canada) According to Warning Service Manager Karl Klassen, there are persistent weak layers in the snowpack across the area. “When the sun and these high temperatures hit this complex snowpack, it’s going to have a destabilizing effect that will make natural and human-triggered avalanches more likely,” says Klassen. The Rocky Mountain National Parks report there have been several close calls of large avalanches running the full extent of their reach. Avalanche Canada says Backcountry users should check regional avalanche forecasts, ensure they have essential rescue gear and know-how to use it.
