In sintesi

Cornice falls may trigger avalanches on slopes below.

Avoid traveling on slopes below cornices and give them a wide berth while traveling on ridetops.

Problemi valanghivi

  • Wind Slabs

    • Alta quota
    • Limite del bosco
    • Sotto il limite del bosco
    Probabilità
    Unlikely - Possible
    Dimensione
    1–2

    Warm temperatures may increase the likelihood of triggering slabs, especially in steep, rocky, alpine terrain.

  • Cornices

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

    Use extra caution around cornices: they are large, fragile, and can trigger slabs on slopes below.
