Avalanche Activity

In high alpine regions, there are more dangerous places with blowing snow

The most dangerous places are those with blown snow, where a heavy load can trigger a mostly small, blocky Avalanche. Greater caution is needed in ravines and gullies where there may be more blown snow.

Snowpack Structure

The snow base is local, with little snow overall. As the weather has warmed, the snow cover has started to change more rapidly in the mid-mountains and also in the high alpine regions. There is still some light snow in the shelter of the high alpine regions, while in the high alpine regions the snow base is mostly crusty and hard.

Weather Forecast

Partly clear in the morning, bringing more moderate cloud from the west during the day. Mostly moderate westerly winds. Temperatures will be around 1 °C at 1500 m and -2 °C at 2500 m.

Tendency

Weather and avalanche conditions will remain similar in the coming days.
