We are still seeing widespread reports of persistent slab avalanches in many regions, particularly in the Southern Interior and Northwest BC. This is not the time to be aggressive in your terrain choices. Stay out of avalanche terrain until these persistent weak layers have had a chance to heal.⁠ ⁠ Get the forecast ?www.avalanche.ca ⁠ #AvCan #KnowSnow⁠ ⁠ Photo: Scotty Beauchamp @BaldfaceLodge
