Terrain and Travel Advice

  • A hard crust on the snow surface will help strengthen the snowpack, but may cause tough travel conditions.
  • Pay attention to isolated wind affected features in the alpine, as well as cross-loaded features at treeline.
  • Use caution above cliffs and terrain traps where even small avalanches may have severe consequences.
