IDC017-021-079-241400- Avalanche Warning Idaho Panhandle Avalanche Center Sandpoint ID Relayed by National Weather Service Spokane WA 641 AM PST Sun Feb 23 2025 The Idaho Panhandle Avalanche Center in Sandpoint has issued a BACKCOUNTRY AVALANCHE WARNING for the following areas: Bonner County, Boundary County, Shoshone County, Idaho. * WHAT...An Avalanche Warning is in effect from Sunday 6 AM to Monday 6 AM. Very dangerous avalanche conditions have developed from wet, dense snowfall and moderate to heavy rain saturating the snowpack and will last through Monday morning. You can very easily trigger avalanches large enough to bury or kill you, and some will release spontaneously. Avoid travel in avalanche terrain during this period. * WHERE...The Selkirk, West and East Cabinet, Purcell, and Bitterroot Mountains - Silver Valley above 4,000 feet. * WHEN...In effect from Sun 06:00 AM PST to Mon 06:00 AM PST. * IMPACTS...The combination of dense storm snow, strong winds, and continued moderate to heavy rainfall saturating the upper snowpack is overloading buried weak snow layers. The snow line will likely rise to between 6,000 and 7,000 feet Sunday afternoon-evening. It will be very likely for backcountry travelers to trigger large to very large avalanches and natural avalanches are likely. Avalanches can break wide across terrain features and run long distances to lower elevations and into mature forests. Consult http://www.idahopanhandleavalanche.org/ or www.avalanche.org for more detailed information. Similar avalanche danger may exist at locations outside the coverage area of this or any avalanche center. $$
