Avalanche Activity

Isolated places with wind-laden slabs.

The avalanche situation is generally stable in the forest zone, Lúčanská Mala Fatra, Veľká Fatra and in the Kralovohoľa part of the Low Tatras. Very sporadically there may be places where wind-formed slabs and cushions on hard ground will be present. Be especially careful in places where well snowed areas alternate with a blown layer on the hard ground.

Snowpack Structure

There is relatively little snow in the forest zone, which is mostly formed into hard snow crust. Above this boundary there are locally wind-blown slabs and pillows again on a hard base. Alternatively, patches blown into hard or grassy substrate.

Tendency

No snowfall persisted.
