CBJ Avalanche Advisory – March 3, 2026

The potential for avalanches in all known slide paths (see map) is elevated and increasing overnight due to heavy snowfall and continued northerly winds in the forecast. Due to the elevated risk, CBJ is moving to the “Set” stage of the “Ready, Set, Go” readiness framework.

This is not an evacuation advisory, however, CBJ is closely monitoring the hazard and will send out an emergency alert if conditions change significantly. While in “Set,” residents should know their risk, have go-bag ready, and prepare household evacuation plans in case conditions change.

Residents can read more about the current Avalanche Hazard Update and snowpack conditions from CBJ’s Avalanche Advisor at bit.ly/cbjavalanche.

Alaska DOT&PF closed Thane Road at the avalanche gates at 6 p.m. this evening due to high avalanche hazard to the roadway. This emergency closure will be re-evaluated at 6 a.m. tomorrow, however, Thane residents should be prepared for extended road closures.

Residents should know their risk, remain alert, have a go-bag ready, prepare household evacuation plans and stay signed up for emergency alerts.
