10 to 15 cm of snow has fallen since yesterday above approximately 1200 m. Below approximately 2200 m from a snow sport perspective, insufficient snow is lying. Watch out for the numerous rocks hidden by the recent snow. Individual avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on steep shady slopes at high altitudes and in high Alpine regions and adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls, where The sometimes new snow-covered wind slabs are lying on weak layers. Along the border with France and in the regions exposed to heavier precipitation the avalanche situation is a little more dangerous.

In all aspects thus far only a little snow is lying in all altitude zones. Towards its base, the snowpack consists of faceted crystals, especially on shady slopes. The new snow will be deposited on soft layers in particular on shady slopes.

The avalanche danger will persist.
