Gulmarg Region
THE BOTTOM LINE
Various alpine avalanche paths in the alpine region have a deeply buried weak layer and may be hanging in the balance. A single rider may trigger large, destructive avalanches. When selecting your route in the backcountry, remain conservative. Slopes which have previously avalanched are a better choice to begin your selection process. North alpine aspects may also have soft slab avalanche risk near ridgetops created by southerly winds.
