Based on avalanche assessments and recommendations, the Governor has decided to continue the residence and traffic ban on the east side (upper side) of Road 100 from the school and up along Gruvefjellet to Nybyen (Road 100 no. 13).

The traffic and residence ban means that the snowmobile trail on the upper side of Road 100 is closed. The ban does not apply to traffic along road 100 itself.

A new assessment of the avalanche danger will be made on Wednesday
