Highlights

Be careful in lee areas with wind deposited snow, typically behind ridges, ribs and in gullies. Especially where the wind deposited slabs are thin or soft, a slab avalanche is easier to trigger here.

Avalanche Activity

Be careful in lee areas with wind deposited snow, typically behind ridges, ribs and in gullies. Especially where the wind deposited slabs are thin or soft, a slab avalanche is easier to trigger here.

Pågåande kraftig vind vil gje pålagring og ferske fokksnøflak i nordvestlege leheng. Det ligg òg eldre flak som treng tid på å stabilisere seg i høgda.

Snowpack Structure

Snøoverflaata er variert og ber preg av nedbør og vind i starten av veka. I høgda har det periodevis vore kraftig vind og snøen ligg som bundne flak av varierande hardheit. Ved skoggrensa ligg snøen framleis ubunden.

Tendency

The danger increases when the wind picks up. Avoid areas with wind deposited snow, typically behind ridges, ribs and in gullies.
