Advice

The bulletin is a planning tool and may differ from the actual situation. Always make your own evaluation. To be 100 % avalanche safe, avoid all avalanche terrain.

Avalanche risk assessment

Skredfaren ventes å avta til 3- betydelig, men ustabil fokksnø trenger tid til å stabilisere seg.
Det er lett for en skiløper å løse ut skred i den ferske fokksnøen og enkelte naturlig utløste store skred kan fortsatt forekomme.
