Travel and Terrain Advice
Be aware of the potential for glide avalanches from open cracks and cliff-like steep slopes at lower elevations. Also be aware of the possibility of loose snow avalanches from large southerly steep slopes. We recommend that you do not enter or quickly pass through the lower part of such areas or the gully bottom. Be careful not to fall into gully. Sunny skies and warmer temperatures are in the forecast. The avalanche danger level will change from "Low" to "High" depending on daytime temperatures and solar radiation. It is recommended that you finish your activities before the crust melts and the snowpack loses strength due to the effects of solar radiation and rising temperatures.
Avalanche Problem
全層雪崩 Glide slab
Watch out for open glide cracks and cliff-like slopes.
点発生湿雪雪崩 Wet Loose snow
Beware of large steep slopes to the south.
概要
Avalanche
Yesterday (17th), there was a report of a glide avalanche size 2 observed on an extremely steep southeast-facing slope
Snowpack
The crusts were formed by the rainfall on the 15th, and the snowfall on the 16th, which was influenced by strong northerly winds, was on top of the crusts, but bonding is good. The crusts have been blown away in windy areas, exposing the crusts. No vulnerability in the middle to lower layers of the snowpack has been reported. The lower part of the snowpack is expected to be wet and losing strength due to the cold nighttime temperatures at lower elevations.
Weather
As of 4:00, the temperature at Ameda Fujiwara is 1.4°C. No snowfall in the past 24 hours. The Japan Meteorological Agency is forecasting cloudy skies and clear skies before noon and in the evening due to the influence of a pressure trough and moist air, although high pressure will gently cover the area.
