Avalanche warning for region Indre Troms Sunday 28.02.2021

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of new snow • Within half a meter • The weak layer collapses easily and clean (easy propagation). The overlying slab is soft. A big and identifiable crystal in the weak layer. • Easy to trigger • 2 - Medium • Some steep slopes N, NE, E, SE, S above 500 masl

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of faceted snow beneath a crust • The weak layer collapses easily and clean (easy propagation). The overlying slab is soft. 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 above 500 masl • kantkornlag under skare fra ca 550moh opp til 1400moh

Avalanche Problems

• Buried weak layer of new snow • Within half a meter • The overlying slab is soft. • Very easy to trigger • 2 - Medium • Some steep slopes N, NE, E, W, NW above 400 masl

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of faceted snow beneath a crust • Within a meter • The collapsing weak layer is thin < 3 cm. A big and identifiable crystal in the weak layer. • Very easy to trigger • 3 - Large • Some steep slopes N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW above 500 masl

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of faceted snow beneath a crust • Within a meter • A big and identifiable crystal in the weak layer. • Very easy to trigger • 2 - Medium • Some steep slopes N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW above 300 masl

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of faceted snow near surface • Within a meter • The weak layer collapses easily and clean (easy propagation). A big and identifiable crystal in the weak layer. • Difficult to trigger • 3 - Large • Some steep slopes N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW above 500 masl • finner fortsatt aktivt vedvarende svakt lag av kantkorn i snødekket. Krever større tillegsbelastning for å påvirkes. Drønn i snøen observert av skiløpere under tregrensen i denne delen av regionen.
