Bregenzerwald Mountains

Predominantly low avalanche danger

Predominant sunshine and good visibility in the mountains accompanied by a slight tendency towards foehn winds arising. Temperatures at 2000m: -4 to -1 degree. High-altitude winds: light W/SW winds, blowing at moderate to brisk strength in the foehn-exposed zones.

No significant change in the avalanche situation is anticipated.

Predominantly low avalanche danger

Avalanche danger is low. In extremely steep, especially shady terrain, small avalanches can be triggered by winter sports enthusiasts. Apart from being buried in snow masses, the risks of being swept along and forced to fall also require caution. Particularly naturally triggered slides and small-to-medium sized glide-snow avalanches are possible.

A few centimetres of fresh fallen snow lie deposited up to high altitudes on top of a thoroughly wet, well settled old snowpack surface with near-surface melt-freeze crusts. Small snowdrift accumulations have been freshly generated in ridgeline terrain. On steep, grass-covered slopes, isolated glide cracks and small glide-snowslides have been observed. There is still inadequate information available from off-piste terrain to the Avalanche Warning Service.
