Avalanche Activity

Usually too little snow for ski tours off the secured pistes.

The avalanche risk is low. Persistent weak layers are problematic. Occasionally small slab avalanches with large additional loads can be triggered. Avalanche prone locations are on very steep slopes in the northern and eastern aspects. The risk of falling and injury is greater than the danger of burial.

Snowpack Structure

The snow surface is still dry in shady areas, otherwise it often crusts can form. The melt-freeze crust softens again in the sun. The old snowpack consists of faceted crystals and is partly interspersed with melt-freeze crusts. There is little to no snow on the sunny slopes.

Tendency

Avalanche danger remains low.
