Avalanche warning for region Indre Sogn Tuesday 09.03.2021

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of faceted snow near surface • Within half a meter • Easy to trigger • 3 - Large • Few steep slopes N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW • Gammel kant finnes over enn 1300moh

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of new snow • Within half a meter • Easy to trigger • 2 - Medium • Few steep slopes NE, E, SE, S above 800 masl • Nyere fokksnø finnes i flere himmelretninger men betydlig mest i østlig. Generelt mer avblåst i vestlig. Krevende å bare velge et svak lag fordi det kan være flere . Det kan løsne på skaren/løsere nysnø/den nyere , kant over skare/kant under skare.

Avalanche Problems

• 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. • Difficult to trigger • 3 - Large • Some steep slopes N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW above 1100 masl

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of faceted snow beneath a crust • Over one meter • The collapsing weak layer is thin < 3 cm. A big and identifiable crystal in the weak layer. • Difficult to trigger • 3 - Large • Some steep slopes N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW above 1200 masl • Kantkornproblemet ser ut til å starte ca. ved 1150 moh.

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Within a meter • A big and identifiable crystal in the weak layer. • Difficult to trigger • 3 - Large • Some steep slopes E, SE, S above 1200 masl • Fekk brudd på skarelaget (Saharaskaren) med begynnande kant i fokksnø over.Det svake laget skal litt til å påverke då bruddet kom ved stor belastning, men der snødekket er tynt kan dette vere eit problem.
