avalanche report - / ˈævəlɑːntʃ rɪˈpɔːt / -
noun
A daily (sometimes twice daily) report that identifies the avalanche danger level in a specified region for a specified period of time. Unless your FreeRide adventures take you to the frontier of the skiing world, where-ever you ride there’s likely a local avalanche bulletin that is updated daily (sometimes twice daily) throughout the season.
While the look and feel of these may differ from country to country they tend to follow an internationally recognised information pyramid with the avalanche danger level at the top followed by successive layers of information, such as avalanche prone locations, types of avalanche risk present and a description of likely dangers, ranked in order of relevance and importance finishing with the raw, uninterpreted data.
