Avalanche Activity

Favorable situation

Avalanche danger is LOW. Only few danger zones for dry-snow slab avalanches in extremely steep terrain at high altitudes. Small fresh snowdrift accumulations there can trigger in isolated cases. Weak layers deeply embedded in the snowpack are unlikely to trigger.

Snowpack Structure

The snowpack is stable. The small amount of fresh snow has settled and become melt-freeze encrusted in the strong sun. In exposed terrain there are small, shallow snowdrift accumulations which are unlikely to trigger.

Weather Synopsis

On Monday, sunshine will dominate, visibility will be good. Low lying clouds and fog in early morning or residual clouds can disturb. As evening approaches, high-altitude cirrus clouds from the west will move in. Winds will be mostly light at all altitudes. At 2000 m: -6 to +2 degrees; at 3000 m: -10 to -4 degrees.
