Avalanche Activity

Weak layers deep in the old snowpack represent the main danger.

Winter sport participants can release avalanches in isolated cases, with a large load in most cases. Avalanches can in very isolated cases penetrate deep layers and reach medium size. The avalanche prone locations for dry avalanches are to be found in particular on steep west, north and east facing slopes above the tree line.

Snowpack Structure

Above the tree line snow depths vary greatly, depending on the infuence of the wind. The snowpack will be subject to considerable local variations at elevated altitudes. The somewhat older wind slabs of the last few days are lying on top of a weakly bonded old snowpack in particular on west to north to east facing aspects above the tree line. This also applies in isolated cases on south facing slopes in high Alpine regions. In particular intermediate altitudes: As a consequence of mild temperatures and solar radiation a crust formed on the surface during the last few days.

Tendency

Weakly bonded old snow requires caution.
