It will be a white Christmas in the Orobie mountains: watch out for the first avalanches

The

short snowfalls in recent days will give mountain enthusiasts more Christmas-like panoramas than last year

. This time i

flakes also fell in the valley floor areas guaranteeing a minimum thickness of the snowpack, especially on the slopes facing north

. Quite a different situation on those facing south, however, where the snow line has now risen up to around 1,500 meters above sea level. Although the amount accumulated on the ground was not significant (around 2,000 meters had fallen about fifty centimeters) there was no lack of spontaneous avalanches, especially where the slopes of the slopes are significant.
