Kernpunkte

Generally stable conditions exist, and large avalanches are unlikely. Steer clear of steep slopes if the surface crust melts and you're sinking deep into a wet, mushy snowpack.

    You may be able to trigger small Wet Loose avalanches if surface crusts break down this afternoon. These are most likely during the heat of the day on very steep slopes that face the sun. Although slow-moving, these avalanches are surprisingly powerful and difficult to escape. 

    Starting and ending your day early is a great way to reduce your risk. If crusts become unsupportable, you've missed your window. Move to a shadier aspect or consider calling it a day.
