Avalanche Activity

The old snowpack is well consolidated and its surface has a strong melt-freeze crust.

The snowpack will be generally well bonded. The surface of the snowpack is frozen, but not to a significant depth and will soften quickly. The avalanche prone locations for dry avalanches are to be found in particular on steep north, northeast and northwest facing slopes above approximately 2200 m. Weak layers in the old snowpack can be released especially by large additional loads here. As a consequence of warming during the day, the likelihood of moist avalanches being released will increase on steep sunny slopes.

Snowpack Structure

Tendency

Backcountry tours and off-piste skiing should be started and concluded early.
