Avalanche Activity

Slab avalanches and moist snow slides and avalanches are possible in isolated cases.

Adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls and above approximately 1900 m individual slab avalanches are possible, even medium-sized ones. As a consequence of warming during the day individual mostly small wet snow slides and avalanches are possible. The avalanche prone locations for wet avalanches are to be found especially on rocky sunny slopes below approximately 1900 m.

Snowpack Structure

The old snowpack will be generally stable. The more recent wind slabs have formed in particular in gullies and bowls and at elevated altitudes. Sunshine and high temperatures will give rise as the day progresses to increasing moistening of the snowpack in some cases below approximately 1900 m.
