Avalanche Activity

Increase in avalanche danger as the snowfall becomes more intense.

25 to 50 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, will fall until Saturday above approximately 2000 m. The new snow of the last few days is poorly bonded with the old snowpack. In particular extremely steep west, north and east facing slopes, above approximately 1800 m: Medium-sized and, in isolated cases, large natural avalanches are possible. The avalanches can be released by small loads. Gradual increase in avalanche danger as the snowfall becomes more intense. During the course of the night possibly danger level 3 (considerable) will be reached in the regions exposed to heavier precipitation above approximately 1600 m. The weather report and anticipated change in the avalanche danger are uncertain.
