Avalanche Activity

Be aware of the risk of falling!

The avalanche risk is low. Fresh wind slabs that develop during the daytime changes can be problematic. Occasionally, smaller slab avalanches can be triggered with little additional load in steep terrain adjacent to ridgelines. On shady slopes at high altitudes, deeper weak layers can be disturbed in isolated cases with large additional loads.

Snowpack Structure

Fresh, small snowdrift accumulations form with winds from north-westerly directions. Some of these come to rest on a soft layer of snow and can be prone to triggering. In shady high altitudes, layers of faceted crystals can be found deep in the otherwise compact old snowpack. At medium altitudes, the snowpack is wet towards the ground.

Tendency

The avalanche danger remains low.
