In sintesi

Recent strong winds have built wind slabs.

Avoid leeward features where slabs are likely most reactive.

    Wind slabs are taking their time to heal. Avoid large, wind loaded features that could produce an avalanche big enough to hurt you.

Confidence

Moderate

  • Uncertainty is due to the limited number of field observations.

Avalanche Summary

A large natural avalanche cycle occurred on Tuesday and Wednesday. With many large (size 2-3) storm slab avalanches.

No new avalanches have been reported so far on Thursday.

Snowpack Summary

Up to 100 cm of recent storm snow has fallen at higher elevations, accompanied by strong southwest wind. Reports suggest a surface crust extends up to 1400 m.

Recent storm snow fell on a layer of small facets and, in places, surface hoar. This measn wind slabs are taking longer to heal than normal.

Terrain and Travel Advice

  • Be especially cautious as you transition into wind-affected terrain.
  • Stay off recently wind loaded slopes until they have had a chance to stabilize.
  • Avoid slopes that sound hollow or drum-like.
