Border Graie Alps

Old wind slabs above approximately 2500 m. As a consequence of warming during the day the avalanche prone locations will become more prevalent.

Old wind slabs above approximately 2500 m. As a consequence of warming during the day the avalanche prone locations will become more prevalent.

As a consequence of new snow and wind from easterly directions, mostly small wind slabs formed in particular above approximately 2600 m. In particular at intermediate and high altitudes and on steep sunny slopes medium-sized moist and wet avalanches are possible as a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation. Backcountry tours should be started and concluded early.

In some cases new snow and wind slabs are lying on the smooth surface of an old snowpack. This applies especially on sunny slopes, but in isolated cases also on shady slopes below approximately 2600 m. In particular below approximately 2500 m,: The old snowpack remains generally stable. Below approximately 2000 m a little snow is lying.
