Avalanche problems

    • Above 2,200 m

Avalanche Activity

Fresh wind slabs require caution.

The fresh wind slabs can still be released in some cases. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on very steep shady slopes above approximately 2200 m. Caution is to be exercised adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. Avalanches can reach medium size in isolated cases. On extremely steep slopes individual wet loose snow slides are possible, in the event of solar radiation in particular.

Snowpack Structure

In some places wind slabs are lying on soft layers, in particular on steep shady slopes at elevated altitudes. In some cases the various wind slabs have bonded still only poorly together. Sunshine and high temperatures will give rise as the day progresses to gradual moistening of the snowpack.

Tendency

Monday: The weather conditions fostered a strengthening of the snow drift accumulations. They are now only very rarely prone to triggering.
