Avalanche danger will further recede.
The snow is distributed in highly irregular fashion
Avalanche danger above the treeline is CONSIDERABLE, below that altitude danger is MODERATE. A slab can be triggered by the weight of one sole person in steep terrain. Most critical : E-facing slopes, also on N and S-facing slopes, isolated triggerings are possible. Transitions from shallow to deep snow require high attentiveness. Avalanches are generally small-to-medium sized, in isolated cases also large-sized. Naturally triggered small glide-snow avalanches are possible on steep grassy slopes. In steep rocky terrain, isolated small-to-medium loose-snow avalanches are possible.
The snowpack was able to settle on Sunday. Bonding of fresh snow and drifts to the old snowpack is not adequate everywhere.
On Monday, generally adequate visibility, but some high altitude cloudbanks will pass through, hardly any sunshine. Along the Main Alpine Ridge, northerly winds at 30-50 km/hr, elsewhere not much wind. At 2000 m: 12 degrees, at 3000 m -16 degrees.
