Low avalanche danger
Low avalanche danger prevails. Only thin snowdrift patches deposited atop hardened melt-freeze crusts, also iced-over surfaces. These can be triggered in isolated cases by skiers. In steep terrain, risks of falling need to be considered.
In this region there is little snow on the ground. Thin, often older snowdrift patches now blankets melt-freeze encrusted or iced-over surfaces at high altitudes, or else bare ground.
