In sintesi

Heads up to ice climbers: Friday PM is expected to have a dramatic spike of freezing levels to above 2600m; West and Southwest exposed climbs would be threatened by this rapid warming, especially combined with expected strong solar radiation.

    Moderate winds and warm temperatures have formed hard slabs in all wind-exposed areas.

  • Deep Persistent Slabs

    • Limite del bosco
    • Sotto il limite del bosco
    Probabilità

    Large triggers like a cornice failure could initiate a slide in this weak layer at the base of the snowpack. Shallow snowpack areas near exposed rocks are another potential trigger site.
