Kernpunkte

Low-consequence terrain is recommended.

Isolated wind slabs may still be triggered by riders.

    Sporadic, persistent slab avalanches continue to occur. While this avalanche problem is becoming more stubborn to trigger, it comes with serious consequences.

Confidence

Moderate

Avalanche Summary

No new avalanches have been reported since Friday. The persistent avalanche problem is slowly improving but deserves patience and continued vigilance.

Snowpack Summary

A thin crust overlies 20 to 30 cm of soft snow in most areas. This sits on a layer of surface hoar in isolated locations and a crust on sun-affected slopes.

A persistent weak layer that consists of a crust with overlying facets and/or surface hoar, is buried 90 to 120 cm. While this layer is widespread, it is expected to be most problematic on north through east-facing slopes between 1700 and 2300 m.

At treeline, snow depths range from 100 to 180 cm.

Terrain and Travel Advice

  • Avoid steep terrain, including convex rolls, or areas with a thin, rocky, or variable snowpack.
  • Wind slabs are isolated, but may remain reactive.
