</style><p class="p_CC664AAA"><span class="s_3FE45715">On Saturday, a few natural size 2.5 avalanches were observed in gulley features on a northwest aspect. A natural size 3 persistent slab was observed on a southeast aspect at 2500 m which failed down 60 cm and was 600 m wide wrapping around a feature. On Friday, explosives trigger two cornices on a northeast ridge.  A natural size 1 wind slab and cracking under skies was reported in the central part of the region. A few larger avalanches were reported midweek, including </span><span class="s_AA239A9B">a natural size 3 avalanche on a northeast aspect at 2500 m, an explosive triggered avalanche that failed on the ground down 100 cm, and a natural size 4 deep persistent slab that failed on a broad ridge feature on south through north aspects.</span></p><p class="p_CC664AAA"><span class="s_3FE45715">On Monday, the recent storm snow is expected to be reactive at higher elevations, especially in wind loaded terrain and on steep convex features. Cornices are large and may become weak with daytime warming or during stormy periods. We are in a low probability, high consequence scenario for persistent slab avalanches failing on deep buried weak layers. </span><a id='GoToAdded' href="http://www.avalanche.ca/blogs/novemberfacetsmarchlphccycle" target="_blank"><span class="s_B5813F7D">Click here for more details.</span></a><span class="s_3FE45715"> </span><a id='GoToAdded' href="http://www.avalanche.ca/blogs/lp-hc-2017march" target="_blank"><span class="s_B5813F7D">Click here for photos the avalanche cycle last week.</span></a><span class="s_AA239A9B" /></p>
