Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of faceted snow near surface • Within half a meter • The weak layer collapses easily and clean (easy propagation). The overlying slab is soft. • Easy to trigger • 1 - Small • Few steep slopes N, NE, SW, W, NW above 800 masl • Kan finnast enkelte ferske fokksnøansamlingar, der det var vind torsdag, som vil være lett å løyse ut.

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of faceted snow near surface • Within half a meter • The overlying slab is soft. A big and identifiable crystal in the weak layer. • Easy to trigger • 2 - Medium • Few steep slopes N, SW, W, NW above 600 masl • I områder hvor det har vært snøtransport. Flakene er myke, så tenker maks str 2
