Avalanche risk assessment

Snøskredfaren forventes å avta til 3-betydelig. Den ferske fokksnøen trenger tid på å stabilisere seg og det vil være mulig for en enkelt skiløper å løse ut middels store skred i den ferske fokksnøen. Det kan også forekomme noen naturlig utløste våte- og tørre flakskred, samt enkelte glideskred som følge av nedbør siste dager.
