Avalanche Activity

Humidity within the snowpack increases.

Avalanche danger above 1600m is moderate. Wet snow can be problematic. On slopes with sufficient snow in extremely steep terrain, small wet loose-snow avalanches can trigger naturally or be triggered by persons. Isolated medium-sized wet glide-snow avalanches can release naturally at any time over smooth ground as well as on meadows or rock slabs.

Snowpack Structure

Up to high altitudes the snowpack is becoming increasingly wet. Barely any layering left in the snowpack. South-facing slopes are widespread bare. In some places above approx. 1500m there is still a coherent snow cover on the shady side.
