In sintesi

Good route selection is key to minimize exposure on larger slopes.

Problemi valanghivi

  • Persistent Slabs

    • Alta quota
    • Limite del bosco
    • Sotto il limite del bosco
    Probabilità
    Possible - Likely
    Dimensione
    1–2
    If this layers if triggered, there is a likelihood of entraining the entire snowpack with it

  • Deep Persistent Slabs

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

    The big concern is that if anything gets triggered within the snowpack, then the entire snowpack would fail on the basal facets.
