Recent Observations:
- Over the last 24 hours, near treeline temperatures averaged 34.5 ºF. Southeast winds were light with a few moderate gusts. The height of snow at Old Ski Bowl is 42 inches.
- The best snow surfaces for sliding, riding, and climbing will be in gullies. Moraines and ridges are devoid of snow until 10,000 ft. Above, skiers and climbers have found good condition, depending on the day.
- For climbers, rockfall is being observed in Avalanche Gulch. Wear a helmet and start early if making a summit attempt. You might not see any rockfall, or you can get smacked. It's a roll of the dice. The rule is simple: the more exposed rock, the better chance for rockfall.
- It is difficult to find continuous snow out of Bunny Flat up into Avalanche Gulch, though your best bet is to hug the base of Green Butte Ridge until you get above treeline. Plan to mostly walk to treeline.
- You can now drive to within 1.5 miles of the North Gate trailhead, but a high-clearance 4x4 is recommended. Clear Creek and Brewer Creek trailheads still have several of miles of snow on them.
- The season is over for the Tri-Forest Snowmobile Trails and snowmobiling anywhere else.
- Sand Flat Winter XC Trails are also done.
Mountain Weather:
Daytime high temps will be a bit warmer today, under mostly clear skies, and Saturday looks similar. Sunday, there is not much change, though expect some clouds to start streaming in from the northwest. Monday and Tuesday, a strong jet will push into NW Oregon and SW Washington, providing some much-needed mountain rain and snow. Most notable for us will be the increase in wind, to the tune of 50+ knots out of the W-NW at the 10,000-foot level. As for precipitation, not much is expected for the Mt. Shasta area, but we love surprises!
