In sintesi

Avalanche danger is low anywhere a hard melt-freeze crust exists on or near the snow surface. Continue to travel safely around cornices during the heat of the day.

Problemi valanghivi

  • Cornices

    • Alta quota
    • Limite del bosco
    • Sotto il limite del bosco
    Probabilità
    Unlikely - Possible
    Dimensione
    1.5–2.5

    Daytime warming could weaken cornices. Give them a wide berth when on ridges and limit your exposure when travelling on slopes below them.

Confidence

Moderate

  • We are uncertain due to a limited number of field observations.

Avalanche Summary

We haven't received any recent reports of avalanches.

The likelihood of avalanches is low anywhere a hard melt-freeze crust exists on the snow surface. Use caution near cornices and on sun-exposed slopes during the heat of the day.

Snowpack Summary

Anywhere from a dusting to 10 cm of snow overlies a hard melt-freeze crust. Sun-exposed slopes may melt with daytime warming.

The remainder of the snowpack is strong with numerous thick melt-freeze crusts.

Terrain and Travel Advice

  • Periods of low danger may be a good time to increase your exposure.
  • Avalanche activity is unlikely when a thick melt-freeze crust is present on the snow surface.
  • Pay attention to cornices and give them a wide berth when traveling on or below ridges.
  • Limit exposure to steep, sun exposed slopes, especially when the solar radiation is strong.
