Snowpack Structure

A little snow is lying. The snowpack will be unfavourable at elevated altitudes. Distinct weak layers exist in the old snowpack. This applies in particular on northwest, north and east facing slopes at elevated altitudes. Steep sunny slopes as well as below approximately 1900 m: The snowpack is fairly homogeneous and its surface has a crust that is barely capable of bearing a load.

Tendency

Low avalanche danger will prevail.

Avalanche Activity

Individual avalanche prone locations are to be found on steep shady slopes at elevated altitudes.

Avalanches can be released in the weakly bonded old snow, mostly by large additional loads. This applies in particular on northwest, north and east facing slopes at elevated altitudes. Avalanches are rather small.
