Avalanche Activity

Favorable situation

Avalanche danger is LOW. There are only few small danger zones due to fresh snowdrift accumulations in extremely steep ridgeline terrain and in gullies, where releases are possible. Deeply embedded weak layers are unlikely to trigger.

Snowpack Structure

The snowpack is stable, the fresh snow has settled and is melt-freeze encrusted in some places due to the intense springtime sunshine. In exposed zones there are shallow snowdrifts generated by W/N winds, unlikely to trigger.

Weather Synopsis

On Saturday, reduced visibility, frequent rainfall and snowfall, the snowfall level will lie at 800-1200 m. Brief sunny intervals between the showers are possible. Winds will be moderate to brisk from the NW. At 2000 m: -4 degrees; at 3000 m: -11 degrees.

Tendency

No significant change in avalanche danger levels is expected.
