Avalanche Activity

Wind and fresh snow give unstable conditions in i a few slopes. 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. Avoid convex terrain.

Vind i kombinasjon med snøfall vil danne ferske fokksnøflak i nordlige og østlige heng i høyden. Det er ellers lite snø i regionen, og under 1000 moh er skredfaren liten.

Snowpack Structure

Siste døgnet har det kommet 5-10 cm nysnø, ellers er det lite snø i regionen. Mildvær har gjort at det er dårlig skiføre.

Tendency

Generally thin snow cover, but be careful in areas with fresh wind deposited snow. Keep in mind that even small avalanches can have consequences if you fall into rocky terrain.
