In sintesi

A change from the recent cloudy conditions to sunny skies may wake up snowpack weaknesses that have been dormant as of late. More caution is needed on sun exposed slopes at all elevations.

Problemi valanghivi

  • Wind Slabs

    • Alta quota
    • Limite del bosco
    • Sotto il limite del bosco
    Probabilità
    Possible - Likely
    Dimensione
    1–3
    Windslabs are present below corniced ridgelines. These slabs have not been reactive in the past week, however, warm temps and solar exposure may wake them up.

  • Loose Wet

    • Alta quota
    • Limite del bosco
    • Sotto il limite del bosco
    Probabilità
    Possible - Likely
    Dimensione
    1–2
    Warmer temperatures and sunny skies will increase the likelihood these avalanches. These slides may trigger slab avalanches deeper in the snowpack, especially around convexities near treeline.

  • Deep Persistent Slabs

    • Alta quota
    • Limite del bosco
    • Sotto il limite del bosco
    Probabilità
    Unlikely - Possible
    Dimensione
    2–4
    This layer is now buried by a settled upper snowpack. Triggering of this layer is still possible especially from a thin spot.
