Lo esencial

Do not let the clear skies trick you into skiing big slopes as the snowpack is weak.

Problemas de aludes

  • Persistent Slabs

    • Alta montaña
    • Límite del bosque
    • Bajo el límite del bosque
    Probabilidad
    Possible - Likely
    Tamaño
    1–2
    If this layers if triggered, there is a likelihood of entraining the entire snowpack with it

  • Deep Persistent Slabs

    • Alta montaña
    • Límite del bosque
    • Bajo el límite del bosque
    Probabilidad
    Possible
    Tamaño
    2–3
    The big concern is that if anything gets triggered within the snowpack, then the entire snowpack would fail on the basal facets.

One size 2.5 slab avalanche probably cornice triggered just below ridgeline East face of Snowpeak (2500m)
