On Southern aspects, the stability of a slope will depend on the degree of overnight freezing and the daytime temperatures and sun effect. Also, crevasse bridges will not be as strong as usual. Lastly, remember cornice failures are common at this time of year and should be considered significant hazards. Snowfall at higher elevations may create thin slabs on lee features. Travel is variable, especially at mid-elevations.
Travel is best in the alpine while the snow remains frozen or on low angle northerly aspects.
Remember to watch for rocks and snags during descent runs.
