Avalanche Activity

Be careful in lee areas with wind deposited snow, typically behind ridges, ribs and in gullies. Wind slabs are especially easy to trigger in the high mountains where it was a good snow cover before.

Lengst vest i regionen kan det komme mye nysnø i kombinasjon med sterk vind. Det vil dannes ferske fokksnøflak, som kan være lett å løse ut.

Snowpack Structure

Det er fremdeles lite snø i terrenget. Snødekket er tynt og ganske jevnt fordelt. Det ligger løs snø helt ned til bakken. I leområder finnes mindre ansamlinger av vindtransportert snø. Det er mye stein og vegetasjon i terrenget. Fredag var det plussgrader opp til ca. 1100-1200 moh. I vestvendte heng der det tidligere lå mest snø ligger kantkorn i bunn.

Tendency

Slabs of wind deposited snow can be triggered in isolated features.
