Isolated danger zones in gullies and bowls

Older and fresh snowdrifts blanket a weak old snowpack, esp. on wind-protected shady slopes. Clear nighttime skies are forecast, with low temperatures and low air moisture. Thus, The snowpack is expansively metamorphosed. The snowpack is highly diverse even over small areas. Below 1600m very little snow on the ground. Hardly any snow on the ground regionally.

On Friday, sunshine will gradually prevail during the morning hours. Moderate W/SW winds will be blowing. At 2000m: rising from 1 to 5 degrees; at 3000m: -3 degreres. Source: GeoSphere Austria.

No significant change in avalanche danger levels expected

Isolated danger zones in gullies and bowls

Older and fresher snowdrift accumulations are generally small-sized, triggerable only in isolated cases, esp.on wind-protected shady slopes above 2000m, esp. in transitions into gullies and bowls and at the foot of rocky cliffs and behind protruberances in the landscape. Apart from the risks of being buried in snow masses, the danger of being swept along and forced to take a fall require consideration.
