Avalanche Activity

Fresh wind slabs above approximately 2000 m.

As a consequence of new snow and a moderate northerly wind, small wind slabs formed in the course of the day. The small quantity of fresh snow and in particular the wind slabs can be released by a single winter sport participant in isolated cases above approximately 2000 m. Restraint should be exercised because avalanches can sweep people along and give rise to falls.

Snowpack Structure

Some fresh snow as well as isolated small wind slabs are lying on a crust. On shady slopes above approximately 2000 m there are 10 to 50 cm of snow, and even more in some localities. On steep sunny slopes from a snow sport perspective, in most cases insufficient snow is lying.

Tendency

Thursday: The danger of dry avalanches will decrease quickly. The danger of moist avalanches will increase but remain within the current danger level.
