Avalanche warning for region Lyngen Saturday 17.02.2024

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of faceted snow above a crust • Within half a meter • The weak layer collapses easily and clean (easy propagation). • Difficult to trigger • 3 - Large • N, NE, E, W, NW between 300 masl and unknown masl

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of faceted snow above a crust • The weak layer collapses easily and clean (easy propagation). • Easy to trigger • 1 - Small • N, NE • Mest fokksnøflak i N men også i NØ. Kantkorn over skarelag i alle rettinger

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of new snow • Within half a meter • A big and identifiable crystal in the weak layer. • Easy to trigger • 2 - Medium • Some steep slopes N, NE, W, NW above 400 masl

• 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. • Easy to trigger • 3 - Large • Few steep slopes N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW between 900 masl and 300 masl • Jeg finner VVSL av kantkorn i en dybde ned mot en meter, under fokksnø som. har kommet etter stormen INGUNN. Dypere i snødekket finner jeg ikke VVSL av kantkorn

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of faceted snow beneath a crust • Within half a meter • Difficult to trigger • 2 - Medium • Few steep slopes N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW between 900 masl and 300 masl • Har ikke vært på andre steder denne uke så usikker på hvor representativ Henrikskaret er. Her fremstår kantkornlaget som lite reaktivt, dårlig fortplantingsevne og vanskelig å påvirke. Gjorde en LBT på 700 møh. Krevdes meget hard klapping Q3-flate. På denne høyde var kk enda mindre utviklet.

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of new snow • Within half a meter • Difficult to trigger • 1 - Small • NE, E, SE, S, SW above 400 masl • Ikke noen utbredd fokksnøprolematikk her. Varierende tykkelse på flak. Fokksnø fra tidligere i uke fremstår som stabile og snøen fra i går var ubundet.

A big and identifiable crystal in the weak layer. • Easy to trigger • 3 - Large • Some steep slopes N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW below unknown masl • Basert på observasjoner opp til 500moh, regnwr med at det stemmer gott opp till 1000moh.

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of faceted snow above a crust • Within half a meter • The overlying slab is soft. A big and identifiable crystal in the weak layer. • Easy to trigger • 3 - Large • Few steep slopes N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW above 300 masl • Usikker på øvre høydegrense.

Fikk brudd i denne på ECT, men på LBT brøt det først i skaren lengre nede.

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Poor bonding between crust and overlying snow • Within half a meter • Difficult to trigger • 3 - Large • Few steep slopes

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of new snow • Difficult to trigger • 1 - Small • Some steep slopes
