Verificador de risco Avalanche

Aprenda a avaliar os riscos da avalanche e verifique se as condições são seguras para esquiar no interior.

Avalanche Risk Checker

30°

Always get avalanche training and check official forecasts. Never ski alone in backcountry.

Assess avalanche risk using slope angle, recent snowfall, wind, and temperature trends. Make informed decisions about backcountry access and avalanche danger.

Características Principales

Slope angle slider (0-60 degrees) with visual indicator

Recent snowfall categorization: none, moderate (10-20cm), heavy (20cm+)

Wind condition assessment: light, moderate, strong

Temperature trend tracking: stable, warming, cooling

Risk scoring system producing Low, Moderate, Considerable, or High results

Color-coded visual danger assessment

How to Use Avalanche Risk Checker

1

Determine Slope Angle

Use an inclinometer or visual estimation to gauge slope steepness (30-45° is highest avalanche risk; >45° slides continuously).

2

Input Recent Snowfall

Check weather reports for recent precipitation. Heavy new snow significantly increases risk.

3

Assess Wind Conditions

Evaluate current and recent wind speed. Strong wind creates unstable slab conditions.

4

Note Temperature Trend

Monitor warming or cooling trends. Rapid warming destabilizes snowpack; cooling strengthens it.

Casos de Uso

Backcountry skiers and snowboarders assessing daily risk before trips

Mountain guides evaluating terrain suitability for clients

Ski patrol monitoring conditions and issuing avalanche forecasts

Snowmobile riders making responsible riding decisions

Preguntas Frecuentes

What slope angle is most dangerous?

Slopes between 30-45° are most avalanche-prone. They're steep enough to slide but not so steep that snow continuously slides off.

How much does new snow increase risk?

Significantly. Heavy fresh snow (20cm+) dramatically increases risk for days until it bonds to the snowpack.

What if this tool says conditions are safe?

This tool is a screening tool. Always check official avalanche forecasts, get avalanche training, and never travel alone in backcountry.

Can warming temperatures cause avalanches?

Yes, rapid warming (especially spring) weakens bonds between snow layers, causing wet slides. Freezing nights help restabilize slopes.
