Avalanche Activity

Overall not much snow

Avalanche danger is low. Gliding snow is the main problem. On very steep slopes with smooth ground the activity of naturally triggered glide-snow avalanches will increase as the day progresses, releases mostly small. Avoid zones below glide cracks. In addition, fresh snowdrifts can be problematic at high altitudes. The occur near ridges on N/E/S facing slopes and can be triggered by a single skier, releases are mostly small. Mind the danger of falling.

Snowpack Structure

A few cm of fresh snow lies deposited atop a moist (at lower temperatures thoroughly wet) snowpack surface or on bare ground, bonding is generally good. Small snowdrifts have been generated at high altitudes. The old snowpack is thoroughly wet down to the ground. Gliding movements on smooth slopes are the result.

Tendency

As the weekend nears it will become sunnier and warmer. Wet-snow during the daytime will be the problem.
