State of the Snowpack
February 19 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Each winter, the snowpack tells a story — a narrative shaped by every storm, wind event, and temperature change. This is the story of the snowpack, shared with communities across the mountains.
State of the Snowpack (SOTS) bridges the gap between Avalanche Canada’s regional forecasts and the local snowpack knowledge shared by guides and avalanche professionals. Together, we bring clear, accessible, and locally relevant snowpack information to the public.
Our vision is simple: reduce backcountry avalanche incidents through community connection, education, and shared expertise — helping more people make informed decisions and return home safely each day.
SOTS delivers this knowledge through free, community-based avalanche awareness events held in mountain towns across Canada. Join us this season as we share the story of the snowpack in your community.
