CBJ Avalanche Advisory Update – 01-01-2026 (4:27 AM)

No significant new snowfall is expected until early next week. Avalanche risk remains elevated on Mount Juneau slide paths affecting the White Subdivision, Behrends Ave, and all neighborhoods below Mount Juneau. Residents should visit CBJ's avalanche advisory page to be informed of their risk. This week's historic storm has created conditions that may persist over an extended period, requiring continued awareness even without daily changes. Conditions can change quickly with little warning. CBJ will send alerts if conditions worsen.

Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities (DOT&PF)'s avalanche hazard reduction work was completed this morning. Thane Road has reopened. DOT&PF reminds drivers not to stop in the avalanche zone and to use caution while travelling on Thane Road.

Moving forward CBJ will only issue alerts like these if conditions worsen or major changes are observed. The absence of an alert does not mean the hazard has diminished. You can find current hazard levels at bit.ly/CBJavalanche.

This is not an evacuation advisory. Residents should remain alert, have a go-bag ready, know their risk, and stay signed up for emergency alerts
