Avalanche Activity

Moist and wet avalanches are the main danger.

Above approximately 1900 m snow will fall in some localities. This snow can be released easily or naturally in all aspects at high altitude. In particular in the regions exposed to heavier precipitation numerous medium-sized and, in isolated cases, large avalanches are to be expected as the snowfall becomes more intense. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular at the base of rock walls above approximately 2300 m. In the typical avalanche paths in the regions exposed to heavier precipitation the wet avalanches can in isolated cases reach large size.

Snowpack Structure

As a consequence of mild temperatures and high relative humidity no crust developed on the surface during the last four days. Above approximately 1900 m snow has fallen since yesterday in some localities. Over a wide area new snow is lying on a weakly bonded old snowpack. Avalanches can be released in deeper layers very easily.
