Avalanche warning for region Nord-Troms Friday 24.03.2023

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of new snow • Within half a meter • Very difficult to trigger • 2 - Medium • Some steep slopes S, SW, W above 100 masl

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Poor bonding between layers in wind deposited snow • Within half a meter • The collapsing weak layer is thin < 3 cm. • Difficult to trigger • 2 - Medium • Some steep slopes N, NE, W, NW above unknown masl

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of faceted snow beneath a crust • A big and identifiable crystal in the weak layer. • Very difficult to trigger • 3 - Large • Some steep slopes N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW above 700 masl

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of new snow • Within half a meter • The overlying slab is soft. • Difficult to trigger • 2 - Medium • Few steep slopes N, SW, W, NW above 400 masl • Det har hovedsakelig blåst i SØ og NV vind den siste tiden. Derfor finnes dette skredproblemet i le for begge disse vindretningene.

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of surface hoar • Within half a meter • The collapsing weak layer is thin < 3 cm. A big and identifiable crystal in the weak layer. • Difficult to trigger • 3 - Large • Few steep slopes N, NE, SW, W, NW above 600 masl • Ukjent utbredelse, men det er trolig mest utbredt i le for SØ vind da det oftest er lave temperaturer ved denne vindretningen.
