Avalanche Activity

Slight decrease in danger of moist and wet avalanches as the temperature drops.

Up to 5 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, has fallen above approximately 2000 m. Towards its surface, the snowpack is largely stable and its surface has a crust that is strong in many cases. Even a small avalanche can sweep snow sport participants along and give rise to falls. In the event of solar radiation this applies in particular on very steep slopes.

Snowpack Structure

In some regions 5 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, will fall from midday above approximately 2500 m. The surface of the snowpack has frozen to form a strong crust and will soften later than the day before. Below approximately 2000 m hardly any snow is lying.
