Avalanche Forecasts to end Sunday 15 April

Posted on April 13, 2018 by Helen Webster

The Scottish Avalanche Information Service will issue its last daily avalanche forecast for this winter on Sunday 15 April. However due to the large amount of snow still on the Scottish mountains the SAIS will continue to provide general advice on potential avalanche risk until necessary.

This year more than 210 avalanches have been recorded by SAIS. Conditions on the mountains are likely to remain in winter conditions for quite sometime yet. Check the SAIS website before planning your route and check out the Walkhighlands winter safety information for further tips.
