Avalanche Activity

Wet snow represents the main danger.

The danger of wet snow slides and avalanches will already increase in the late morning. As the day progresses more frequent small to medium-sized wet loose snow avalanches are possible below approximately 2800 m. This applies on extremely steep slopes in all aspects. On very steep shady slopes individual wet slab avalanches are possible between approximately 2400 and 2800 m. In isolated cases avalanches can release the saturated snowpack and reach a dangerous size. In addition individual small to medium-sized gliding avalanches are possible. This applies on steep grassy slopes below approximately 2600 m. Areas with glide cracks are to be avoided.

Snowpack Structure

Outgoing longwave radiation during the night will be severely restricted. The surface of the snowpack will freeze very little and will already be soft in the early morning. As a consequence of mild temperatures and high relative humidity the snowpack can not consolidate. Some rain will fall in some regions. The weather conditions will give rise to increasing and thorough wetting of the snowpack. Below approximately 2000 m from a snow sport perspective, in most cases insufficient snow is lying.

Tendency

Slight decrease in danger of wet avalanches as the temperature drops. Some snow will fall in some localities. This applies above approximately 2200 m. This is the final avalanche report for the winter 2023/24. Current information and announcements are posted on our blog.
