Avalanche warning for region Indre Fjordane Sunday 12.02.2023

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of new snow • Within half a meter • The overlying slab is soft. A big and identifiable crystal in the weak layer. • Difficult to trigger • 2 - Medium • Some steep slopes N, NE, E, SE above 1100 masl

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Poor bonding between layers in wind deposited snow • Spontaneous release • 3 - Large • Few steep slopes N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW above 1100 masl • Helgarderer på eksposisjon, men noen høye nordlige heng ble tungt lastet tidligere i uken.

• Wet slab avalanche • Poor bonding between layers in wind deposited snow • Some steep slopes N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW above 700 masl

• Loose wet avalanche • Spontaneous release • 2 - Medium • Many steep slopes • Helt avhengig av hvor mye regn, og hvor høyt det går. Ikke vått nok foreløpig.

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of new snow • Within half a meter • The overlying slab is soft. • Very easy to trigger • 3 - Large • Some steep slopes N, NE, E, SE, S above 500 masl

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of faceted snow beneath a crust • Within half a meter • The collapsing weak layer is thin < 3 cm. The overlying slab is soft. • Easy to trigger • 3 - Large • Some steep slopes N, NE, E, SE, S above 700 masl • Der det har lagt seg fokksnø over mildværsskare med begynnande kantkorn

• Dry slab avalanche • Poor bonding between layers in wind deposited snow • Within half a meter • The weak layer collapses easily and clean (easy propagation). The overlying slab is soft. • Easy to trigger • 3 - Large • Some steep slopes N, NE, E, SE, S, NW above 700 masl • Lagdelingar i den ferske fokksnøen
