The avalanche danger is low. Persistent weak layers are the problem. Small avalanches can be triggered occasionally with little additional load. Avalanche prone locations can be found on very steep slopes in the northern and eastern aspects.

Up to high altitudes, the snow cover, snowpack is crusted on the surface and partly icy on the sunny slopes. Here it softens on the surface during the daytime changes. In the shade, a crumbly melt-freeze crust dominates at medium elevations. At higher elevations, older wind slab lies on dry, angular layers in places. The snow depths are below average and ground contact is to be expected.

The avalanche danger remains low.
