Avalanche Activity
Not much snow on the ground, mostly low danger
Avalanche danger is low. On smooth, steep grass-covered slopes and in sparsely wooded zones, isolated small glide-snow avalanches are possible.
Snowpack Structure
Due to outgoing radiation and lower temperatures the snowpack surface freezes, then softens during the daytime hours. The snow is insufficient for backcountry tours.
