Avalanche Activity

Snow depths vary greatly, depending on the infuence of the wind. The wind slabs represent the main danger.

The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain and at transitions from a shallow to a deep snowpack. In addition the wind slabs at the base of rock walls are capable of being triggered still. Small and, in isolated cases, medium-sized avalanches are further possible. This applies in particular in case of a large load. Restraint should be exercised because avalanches can sweep people along and give rise to falls.

Snowpack Structure

Over a wide area snow depths vary greatly, depending on the infuence of the wind. Wind slabs are lying on unfavourable layers in particular on steep shady slopes. The snowpack is faceted.

Tendency

The weather will be sunny.
