Travel and Terrain Advice
Continue to be aware of the presence of wind slabs forming on steep downwind slopes at higher elevations. Be aware of the presence of "terrain traps" such as deep gullies, cliffs, rocks, and standing timber that can increase damage even if the avalanche size is small. Be aware of wet snow avalanches on sunny slopes and in low elevation zones due to rising temperatures and solar radiation during the day. In low elevation zones, pay attention to the opening of glide cracks and watch out for glide avalanches and the collapse of blocks from cliff-like areas. Try to avoid such areas or pass through them quickly.

概要
Avalanche
No new avalanche bulletin was reported yesterday (9th), but there is little information.
Snowpack
The recent snowfall of 30-40 cm on top of the Melt-Freeze crust from the rainfall (March 5 rain) has good bonding at its boundaries. In higher elevation areas, recent snowfall and yesterday's snowfall (a few cm) may have been redistributed by northwest winds to form wind slabs. In the lower elevations and on sunny slopes, yesterday's snowfall (several centimeters) is on top of the new Melt-Freeze crust formed by the rising temperature and solar radiation. The effects of rainfall and elevated temperatures may remain in the lower parts of the snowpack at lower elevations, so continue to watch for glides in the snowpack.
Weather
As of 6:00, precipitation over the past 24 hours at AMeDAS Fujiwara was 0 mm. The temperature is -1.5℃. The Japan Meteorological Agency is forecasting clear skies due to a high-pressure system centered over the Sea of Japan.
