Travel and Terrain Advice
The spring cycle has begun. Avalanche danger levels vary widely from "low" to "high" during the course of a day, depending on daytime temperatures and the effects of solar radiation. We recommend that you take action before the crust loosens up due to the effects of solar radiation and warmer temperatures. When the crust melts and your feet or skis sink deep or snowballs begin to roll, this is a sign of increased danger. Watch for collapsing snow cover, loose snow avalanches from large steep slopes, and glide avalanches from glide cracks or cliff-like slopes. Do not enter the lower part of such areas or pass through them quickly.
Avalanche Problem
全層雪崩 Glide slab
Watch out for open cracks and cliff-like terrain.
点発生湿雪雪崩 Wet Loose snow
Beware of large steep slopes due to the amount of snow involved.
概要
Avalanche
Yesterday, there were reports of multiple glide avalanches and loose snow avalanches on extremely steep slopes and point-generating wet avalanches observed.
Snowpack
The snow surface is in a cycle of melting during the day and freezing at night to form crusts. At lower elevations, the strength of the snowpack is weak due to weak or absent freezing. Weakness is not observed from the middle to the lower layers of the snow cover.
Weather
As of 4:00 pm, the temperature at AMeDAS Fujiwara is -0.6°C, 3.3°C at around 1300m elevation, with no cooling during the night. The Japan Meteorological Agency is forecasting cloudy and sometimes sunny skies with daytime temperatures rising to 19°C in Minakami Town due to the influence of low pressure and moist air over the Sea of Japan, although the area will be gently covered by high pressure.
