COAA has been founded by a group of Central Oregon winter recreationalists to promote increased avalanche awareness and champion increased local forecasting and tracking opportunities along the Cascade mountains of Central Oregon. We are not a Forecast Center and do not produce formalized forecasts or advisories at this time. We are a 501c3 Non-Profit built by people like you! Don't hesitate to contact us at info@coavalanche.org with any and all questions.

Keep in mind how current trends may be affecting the snowpack, any new snowfall, and associated stability. Length of day and height of sun will allow solar effects to become a bigger player as we move deeper into spring. Our closest official forecast has some pertinent information that may be worth considering....view it here.

Keep an eye out for those natural indicators of instability and if you are seeing something (good, bad, or indifferent) let others know through our observation page here.
