There is little snow, with areas of blowing snow on the south-western slopes.

On the steepest slopes, a small creep of new snow can be triggered. Strong north-easterly winds carry newly fallen snow - a small avalanche of dry snow can be triggered when snow drifts are loaded on steep slopes. Even small avalanches can cause a loss of balance and a fall into an abyss.

Snow is scarce in the mountains. Since Thursday, up to 20 cm of new dry snow has fallen with light to moderate north-easterly winds. Small snow drifts are forming close to the ridges.
