We received .71\" of moisture in the last 24 hours and at 1800 feet during that time we received around 5 inches of snow.

Densities during last weeks storm came in at as low as 4%. Densities yesterday are well over 10%.

As you can imagine putting this heavy dense snow on top of looser lighter snow has placed a lot of stress in the snowpack.

We have been quite warm for 3 days now. Temperatures fell slightly in the last 24 hours but are predicted to rise again this afternoon.

Winds have been high and ridgetop windloading is still occuring.

With nearly steady temperatures and moisture rates slowing today combined with the fact that the snowpack has had time to settle and bond quite a bit danger levels have been lowered to Considerable.

Considerable states- Natural Avalanches are possible and Human Triggered Avalanches are Likely

Use great caution in the Backcountry as large areas of instability still exist.
