 Poster: A snowHead
|
|
A couple of weeks ago the old and very clear and useful Aosta Valley avalanche bulletin disappeared, and this: https://bollettinovalanghe.regione.vda.it/home turned up in its place. Am I being stupid, or is there no longer a version in English? Any pointers gratefully received.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

@under a new name, Yep. Do you not have the EAWS report in France? If you zoom out on the map, you can click through to the other areas covered, including Switzerland and Austria.

Cheers. That English button is not there on the version I see on my laptop on Chrome, but is on my phone. The whole thing is incredibly hard to navigate though and half of it still appears in Italian. Obviously the additional detail is helpful though. Hey ho, will just need to learn it, but you’d think in 2022 they could design more intuitive websites.

@BlueSky, go directly to the link I just posted. This is a well-designed avalanche bulletin, used widely across the alps.

I did. Thank you. And have now saved it. Still find it hard to understand and use, but each to their own I suppose. No doubt I’ll get the hang of it over time. I think it’s mostly the map, which behaves oddly, jumps around, won’t scroll properly (even with 2 fingers) and when you eventually work out how you get to the relevant detail it’s doesn’t actually name the area it’s describing, so you’re not completely certain if you’re in the place you’re looking at or somewhere entirely different. Anyway, grazie mille for the help. At least I now know where the English version is!

@BlueSky, tbh I agree with you. I don't know why that area is split into such tiny sections (unlikely to be that much variation, I'd have thought). The Tirol version is clearer: https://avalanche.report/bulletin/latest
