Problemi valanghivi

  • Wind Slabs

    • Alta quota
    • Limite del bosco
    • Sotto il limite del bosco
    Probabilità
    Unlikely - Possible
    Dimensione
    1–2
    The majority of the previous windslabs appear to be bonding well, but there is still the potential to trigger these slabs in steep, wind loaded features.

  • Cornices

    • Alta quota
    • Limite del bosco
    • Sotto il limite del bosco
    Probabilità
    Unlikely - Possible
    Dimensione
    1–3
    There are some big cornices out there becoming weaker with the recent warm temps up high - give them a wide berth and the respect they deserve. Several big avalanches resulting from cornice failure were observed in the Maligne Lake area today.

  • Loose Wet

    • Alta quota
    • Limite del bosco
    • Sotto il limite del bosco
    Probabilità
    Likely
    Dimensione

    Lots of sloughing as a result of the warm temps and stronger sun. Plan to be off Southerly slopes before the heat of the day and avoid terrain traps where the snow has a chance to accumulate. Freezing levels were as high as 2400m today.
