Avalanche Activity

Individual avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain.

Avalanches can in very isolated cases be released in deeper layers, in particular by large additional loads. This applies especially on very steep west, north and east facing slopes above approximately 1900 m. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. They are rare but are barely recognisable. In very isolated cases avalanches are medium-sized.

Snowpack Structure

Some snow has fallen in some localities. The gusty wind has transported the fresh and old snow significantly. Hard wind slabs formed. These are lying on top of a weakly bonded old snowpack in particular on west, north and east facing slopes above approximately 1900 m.

Tendency

Low avalanche danger will prevail.
