4/20/2025 The Bottom Line The avalanche danger is LOW throughout the forecast area. Over the last several days a few inches of new snow and periods of strong southeast winds have eroded old crusts and distributed thin, smooth drifts on leeward aspects. Low elevations have remained at or above freezing and received little to no new snow. The higher you get today, the more avalanche problems you’ll encounter. Sunny skies today will improve skiing conditions and increase the likelihood of triggering an avalanche. *** Head to our website at hpavalanche.org for the full forecast. 📸: from a sunny day in late March *** #hpavy #knowbeforeyougo #alaska #winter #backcountry #skiing #splitboarding #touring #avalanche #forecast #snowmachining (fb)

THE BOTTOM LINE The avalanche danger is LOW at all elevations. A storm over the past several days brought a brief return to winter, with 5 inches of new snow this week and strong winds. The possibility exists for triggering a wet loose sluff if the sun pops out or a small lingering wind slab. ********* Head to our website at hpavalanche.org for more information. ********* #hpavy #knowbeforeyougo #alaska #winter #backcountry #skiing #touring #avalanche #forecast #snowmachining (fb)
