Danger level 1 - Low avalanche danger

Published:
Generally stable conditions, but small wet avalanches, cornice fall and glide avalanches are possible.

Avalanche problems

Wet snow (loose snow avalanches)

Not given on a few steep slopes. Avalanches are relatively harmless to people, but can knock you off balance. Can be dangerous close to terrain traps. (size 1)

Below you can see a description of the current snow cover information and current weather forecast in the mountains. If your observations deviate greatly from what is described here, the warning will not necessarily apply either. Always make your own judgments or stay away from avalanche terrain.

Snow cover (in Norwegian)

Wednesday 10. June 2020

Fortsatt svært mye snø i høyfjellet for årstiden, snø over ca 800 moh og skiføre over ca 1000 moh. Bart i sørsider og på rygger. Tynnere snødekke er grovkorna uten lagdeling og mer råtten. Våt kompakt snø, fortsatt skiføre flere steder.

Ingen skredaktivitet observert denne uken.

Fortsatt store toppskavlar enkelte stader, men mange har ramla ned. Det er færre sigesprekker, men fortsatt noen rapportert.

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

Det blir enda varmere men forholdene ventes likevel å holde seg stabile. Det kan løsne små våte løssnøskred i bratt terreng. Under sigesprekker er det forhold for glideskred og noen skavler skal fortsatt ned.
