The Special Public Avalanche Warning stretches from south of Kamloops to Williston Lake.
Avalanche Canada and Parks Canada have issued a Special Public Avalanche Warning for the area east of Prince George.
A prolonged cold and dry start to the winter created a number of persistent weak layers in the snowpack, a statement issued by Avalanche Canada on Wednesday said. Recent snow and warm temperatures have destabilized the weak snowpack, making large human-trigged avalanches likely. Recreational backcountry users always check the avalanche forecast online before heading out, and should carry essential rescue gear - a transceiver, probe and shovel - and know how to use them.
