Avalanche Activity

Risk of injury due to overhanging obstacles and risk of falling

The avalanche danger is low. Persistent weak layers are the problem. Small avalanches can occasionally be triggered with little additional load. Avalanche prone locations can be found on very steep slopes in the northern and eastern aspects, especially when entering gullies and bowls.

Snowpack Structure

Up to high altitudes, the snow cover, snowpack is crusted on the surface. At higher altitudes, bonded snow lies in places on angular, built-up layers. On the sunny slopes, the hard-frozen snow cover, snowpack softens on the surface during the daytime changes. Larger areas are beginning to tap out here. Ground contact is to be expected everywhere.

Tendency

The avalanche danger remains low.
