Avalanche Activity

At elevated altitudes a considerable avalanche danger will prevail.

As a consequence of new snow and wind, wind slabs formed. They must be evaluated with care and prudence. The avalanche prone locations are to be found adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. They can be released by a single winter sport participant.

Snowpack Structure

The fresh and older wind slabs remain prone to triggering in all aspects. Weak layers exist in the snowpack in particular on shady slopes. The weather conditions gave rise to gradual consolidation of the snowpack in some places in particular at low and intermediate altitudes.

Tendency

The weather will be mostly sunny.
