Avalanche warning for region Indre Troms Thursday 29.03.2018

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of new snow • Within half a meter • The overlying slab is soft. • Easy to trigger • Likely • 3 - Large • Many steep slopes NE, E, SE, S, SW above 300 masl

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of faceted snow beneath a crust • Within half a meter • A big and identifiable crystal in the weak layer. • Easy to trigger • Possible • 3 - Large • Some steep slopes N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW between 800 masl and 300 masl

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of faceted snow beneath a crust • Within a meter • The weak layer collapses easily and clean (easy propagation). A big and identifiable crystal in the weak layer. • Difficult to trigger • Likely • 3 - Large • Few steep slopes N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW above 200 masl • Complex situation with persistant weak layer

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of faceted snow above a crust • Within half a meter • Easy to trigger • Possible • 3 - Large • Many steep slopes N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW above 300 masl • Selv om skredproblemet er kantkorn «over» skare her er det mitt inntrykk at det for det meste er kantkorn «under» skare som er problemet som er mest utbredt.
