Avalanche Activity

Isolated glide-snow avalanches possible

Avalanche danger is low. On steep stope with smooth ground, small glide-snow avalanches can trigger naturally on steep slopes below 2000m where there is still sufficient snow. As a result of solar radiation, some fresh snow in steep terrain can trigger as small loose-snow avalanches. At high altitudes, small drifts are accumulating. These can be triggered as a small slab avalanche in a few ridgeline places.

Snowpack Structure

The shallow snowpack is consolidating at intermediate altitudes and consolidating at the lower temperatures. The snowpack base is wet in many places. The old snowpack at high altitudes has settled well and old snowdrift accumulations are well bonded with each other. Below 1500m there is not much snow on the ground.
