Avalanche forecast for Glacier National Park:
“Prepare for adventurous travel below treeline with a variable overnight refreeze. Watch out for skier triggerable windslabs in the North alpine where it is still possible to find winter snow.”
Spring Conditions: The avalanche danger is variable and can range from Low to High. Travelling early in the day is recommended, as conditions can change rapidly in short periods of time due to daytime warming. Pay careful attention to the integrity of surface crusts formed overnight and rising air temperatures during the day. Dry slab avalanche danger may also exist during spring snow storms.
