5.2.5 A variation
New event: Snow variation
What would happen if the original snow layer was much drier—if the SLR was at least 15:1? If the slope was steep enough, inconsequential, point-release avalanches would probably occur after the initial snowfall. Then, with the addition of the second, heavier snow, the top slab would be even more likely to slide, creating a larger, heavier, and longer avalanche or slide.
