The persistent weak layer is slowly gaining strength and adjusting to the dense, deep slab on top. We are moving farther and farther away from our last know loading event, in the form of wind loading or new snowfall, and seeing less reported avalanche activity on this layer. What this means is the likelihood that a human could trigger an avalanche that fails in the PWL is continuing to decrease, but the consequences of a deep and deadly avalanche still remain high. This remains particularly possible in areas that the slab atop the facets is thinner, such as steep rocky terrain where the overall snowpack is thinner or on an old repeater slope that still has facets at the ground. While we are trending in the right direction and getting closer to an overall LOW danger, we are not out of the woods yet, and I would continue to be cautious of traveling on or below steep northwest through north through east facing slopes.
