Low avalanche danger but isolated danger zones due to snowdrifts at high altitudes

Low avalanche danger but isolated danger zones due to snowdrifts at high altitudes

Avalanche danger above the treeline is low, but there are isolated danger zones at high altitudes in northern aspects where near ridgelines or at entries into steep gullies the snowdrifts can trigger small-to-medium slab avalanches.

The fundament is stable by and large, but moist down to the ground. Some fresh snowfall has been registered which was transported to north-facing slopes by southerly winds. Fresh drifts lie deposited atop loose fresh snow and are still instable.

On Monday, variably cloudy, visibility mostly adequate. The southerly winds will be moderate to brisk, later in the day slackening off. Temperatures rising slightly. At 2000 m: -3 to 0 degrees.

On Tuesday gray skies from the southwest, rainfall will set in amid mild temperatures, snowfall level over 1500 m. Danger of glide-snow and wet-snow activity will increase somewhat. The snowdrift problem will recede.
