In sintesi

Most open areas have wind effect at all elevations. With the sunny skies, this is a good time to look at tours that have more travelling than skiing.

Problemi valanghivi

    • Alta quota
    • Limite del bosco
    • Sotto il limite del bosco

    Expect these slabs to slowly break down with the cold. Thin spots will facet(weaken) quicker and become more and more likely to be a trigger as the colder weather continues.

Snowpack Summary

The windslabs are still there and widespread. Not much change until we get some more snow. Approach cross loaded features and lee loaded zones along ridges with extra care.

Terrain and Travel

  • Be careful with wind slabs, especially in steep, unsupported and/or convex terrain features.
  • Pay attention to isolated alpine features as well as cross-loaded features at treeline.
