In these areas spring conditions are in effect; the avalanche hazard will fluctuate greatly depending on the strength of the overnight freeze and how quickly the snowpack is warmed up each day.

In these locations, 50-100 cm of well settled snow overlies a layer of weak </span><a href="https://www.avalanche.ca/glossary#faceted-snow" target="_blank"><span class="s_69909980">facets</span></a><span class="s_1681A555"> that were buried around March 10th. This is currently the primary layer of concern for human triggering persistent slab avalanches, although recent observations suggest it has become difficult to trigger an avalanche on this layer.</span></p><p class="p_CC664AAA"><span class="s_1681A555">Not much further below the March 10th interface is a second weak layer of facets buried on February 19th. Recent loose wet and slab avalanches have been observed gouging into this faceted snow and entraining additional mass.</span></p><p class="p_CC664AAA"><span class="s_AA239A9B"> </span></p>
