Avalanche Activity

Stable snowpack

Avalanche danger is LOW. On extremely steep grass-covered slopes isolated small glide-snow avalanches are possible, but seldom.

Snowpack Structure

The snow has settled well, on sunny slopes there is a melt-freeze crust in early morning. The snowpack is moist up to high altitudes. Hardly any weak layers.

Weather Forecast

During the nocturnal hours, initially clear skies, then clouds will move in, first in the high regions of the Tauern with storm-strength southerly winds, later on slackening off. On Friday, cloudy right from the start, a bit of rainfall/snowfall is possible during the morning, snowfall level initially at 1800-2000 m, then dropping by evening to 1500 m. The winds will be moderate from the south. At 2000 m: +1 degree, dropping to 0 degrees.
