LOCHABER
AVALANCHE RISK AT 1500 ON TUE 1/3/94
Large areas of unstable windslab exist mainly on W and N aspects. On
other aspects, small areas of unstable windslab also exist in
sheltered areas, caused by local wind effects. The avalanche risk is
Category 4 (High).

AVALANCHE RISK OUTLOOK FOR WED 2/3/94
Overnight snow with SW winds will continue to load sheltered slopes
with unstable windslab. Greatest accumulations will be on N and E
aspects, where avalanches will occur. The avalanche risk is expected
to remain at Category 4 (High).

SUMMARY.
Large areas of unstable windslab will be present mainly on N and E
aspects, where avalanches will occur. Category 4 (High).


GLENCOE
AVALANCHE RISK AT 1500 ON TUE 1/3/94
Rising temperature has moistened the snowpack below 850m. Windslab is
still present and is lying on an icy base.Greatest accumulations are
to be found on SW through to N facing slopes above 600m.   Avalanche
Risk Category 4 (High).Avalanche activity observed on Buachaille
Etive Beag.

AVALANCHE RISK OUTLOOK FOR WED 2/3/94.
New snow and strong W winds will deposit fresh accumulations mainly
on E facing slopes above 700m.SW to N facing slopes will remain
unstable.Below 700m thaw conditions will cause wet snow slides and
avalanches on slopes of all aspects. Avalanche Risk Category 4
(High).

SUMMARY
High avalanche risk on all slopes above 500m.
Avalanche Risk Category 4 (High).

NORTHERN CAIRNGORMS
AVALANCHE RISK AT 1500 ON TUE 1/3/94
The snowpack on steep SW to N facing slopes and gullies is very
weakly stabilised. Avalanche debris from several slides noted on NW
to N facing crag aprons in Coire an t-Sneachda together with large
pieces of debris from recently collapsed cornices. Avalanche activity
also noted below 700m on NW shoulder of Castle Hill nr. Rothiemurchus
Lodge. Category 4 (High) risk of avalanche.

AVALANCHE RISK OUTLOOK FOR WED 2/3/94
Heavy overnight snow showers and moderate S winds will continue to
load unstable windslab onto NW to N facing slopes and gullies where
avalanches will occur. Light snow and strong W winds during Weds may
result in the formation of marginally stable windslab on high, steep,
sheltered E facing slopes and gullies later in the period. Category 4
(High) risk of avalanche.

SUMMARY.
Category 4 (High) risk of avalanche will be maintained primarily on
NW to N facing slopes and gullies where avalanches will occur.
