Problemas de aludes

  • Wind Slabs

    • Alta montaña
    • Límite del bosque
    • Bajo el límite del bosque
    Probabilidad
    Unlikely - Possible
    Tamaño

    Hard wind slabs may be found on a variety of slopes. Pay attention to hollow, drummy sounds and changes in the feel of the snow as you travel.

  • Loose Wet

    • Límite del bosque
    • Bajo el límite del bosque
    Probabilidad
    Unlikely - Possible
    Tamaño
    1–3
    Unusually warm alpine temperatures may weaken surface snow and lead to loose wet avalanches.

Confidence

Poor - Due to the number of field observations

Avalanche Summary

No recent avalanches have been reported.

Snowpack Summary

The snowpack is highly variable across different aspects and elevations. There is anywhere from 30-150 cm on the ground. Previous northerly outflow winds scoured upwind slopes back to a firm crust, and created wind slabs on lee aspects, which are gradually gaining strength. Shallow snowpack areas may be rotten (facetted). Recent warm and sunny conditions in the alpine are likely to leave behind sun/temperature crusts. Forecast incoming storm snow may bond poorly to this cornucopia of surfaces.
