Avalanche Activity

Fokksnøen som var på flyttefot søndag vil trolig ligge ustabil i leheng. Unngå bratte heng der snøoverflaten sprekker opp. Dersom snøtransporten fortsetter kan det gå enkelte naturlig utløste skred.

Gamle, dype svake lag ventes ikke å være mulig å påvirke.

Snowpack Structure

Mandag var det kraftig vind fra øst i regionen og trolig stor snøtransport.

Søndag meldes det om en god del løs snø i terrenget.

Regionen har mer snø enn normalt på denne tiden av året. Men snøen er noe ujevnt fordelt i terrenget.

Tendency

Avoid areas with recently loaded slopes where wind slabs are present. If the snow drift continues, some smaller naturally released avalanches are possible. Old, deeply buried persistent weak layers are very hard to trigger.
