Avalanche Activity

Generally safe travel conditions. Use caution on steep sunny slopes in the afternoon as the sun heats the snow surface. Wind slabs from Sunday are expected to be stable.

Det ventes generelt stabile forhold, men dog med en liten økning utover dagen når sola varm i de bratte sidene. Vær nøye på hvor du er til hvilken tid.

Nysnøen fra søndagen ventes å ha stabilisert seg godt og det er farbart mange steder. Vær dog likevel forsiktige i områder der snøen har flaket seg.

Snowpack Structure

Mye løs og fin snø opp til ca 400 moh. Over dette er snøoverflaten mer vindpåvirket, men i skjerma formasjoner er det ubundet snø. Det finnes svake lag av kantkorn under gamle skarelag i snødekket, sist observert 24. mars. Laget er vanskelig å påvirke under harde skarelag.

Tendency

New snow and wind could form wind slabs on top of loose, weak layers. Last week crisp and cold conditions formed near-surface facets, and these may get buried now. Avoid steep slopes with wind slabs. Areas with a loose snow surface will have stable conditions. Naturally released avalanches are expected in the evening.
