Avalanche Activity

Individual small avalanches are possible. Slight increase in danger of moist and wet snow slides in the course of the day.

Small avalanches are possible on very steep north facing slopes. Avalanches can in very isolated cases be released in the old snowpack, in particular by large additional loads. The avalanche prone locations are to be found especially on extreme shady slopes above approximately 2200 m. On very steep slopes mostly small moist loose snow avalanches are possible as a consequence of warming during the day. This applies on very steep shady slopes below approximately 1800 m, as well as on very steep sunny slopes between approximately 1900 and 2400 m.

Snowpack Structure

The snowpack will be generally stable. On sunny slopes no snow is lying below approximately 1800 m. In very isolated cases weak layers exist in the snowpack. This applies on north facing slopes above approximately 2200 m. The solar radiation will give rise as the day progresses to slight moistening of the snowpack.
