Snowpack Structure

Avalanche Activity

In all altitude zones from a snow sport perspective, in most cases insufficient snow is lying.

The fresh snow as well as the mostly small wind slabs represent the main danger. The new snow and wind slabs of Tuesday will be deposited on the unfavourable surface of an old snowpack on steep shady slopes above approximately 2200 m. The avalanches in these loacations are medium-sized and can be released in isolated cases by a single winter sport participant. Restraint should be exercised because avalanches can sweep people along and give rise to falls.
