Avalanche problems
Avalanche Activity
Avalanche danger is low. Some danger zones occur on extremely steep shady slopes. Apart from the danger of being buried in snow masses, the risks of being forced to take a fall require consideration. On steep grassy slopes where there is sufficient snow on the ground, small glide-snow avalanches are possible.
Snowpack Structure
The snowpack has settled well and has consolidated increasingly. On shady slopes the uppermost layers are still loose or soft, on sunny slopes a crust has often formed. On high mostly shady slopes, weak layers are evident inside the old snowpack, also at ground level, which avalanches can trigger down to lower layers with large additional loading. The older drifts at high altitudes are triggerable in isolated cases.
Weather Forecast
Nocturnal skies will be star-studded, and thus, very cold. Sunday will be very dry, radiantly sunny, mild, with only light westerly winds. At 2000m: +2 - +4 degrees.
