Slides in the South Rockies are running well below the snow line, right to valley bottom. This means hikers, climbers, ATVers, hunters and others in dry valleys may be exposed to avalanche risk.
This may be occurring in other regions of the Rockies and BC Interior ranges. The forecast of warm and sunny conditions suggests this condition is likely to persist through the weekend.
Be careful in the mountains this weekend.
