Isolated avalanche prone locations at high altitudes

Isolated avalanche prone locations at high altitudes

The avalanche risk is low. In the shady, extremely steep terrain at high altitudes, small slab avalanches with a high additional load can be triggered occasionally.

With winds from the east, the temperatures drop and some snow falls on apery ground or a hard, sometimes icy snow surface. At higher altitudes (above around 1500 metres), faceted crystals can be found near the surface below the melt-freeze crust. Otherwise, the snow cover, snowpack is compact and stable. There is little snow.

The avalanche danger does not change.
