65 cm of storm snow in the last 3 days with 32 cm in the last 12 hours. Temperatures have risen to - 4 at 1900m. Widespread natural avalanche cycle with numerous avalanches heard during the day. The change in density within the storm snow is reactive to ski cuts on steeper rolls. These slabs are up to 10m wide and 30 cm deep but are not releasing down to the Feb 9 interface. We are calling it very poor stability at all elevations. |
