Avalanche Activity

Moist slab avalanches above approximately 1800 m.

On steep slopes and above approximately 1800 m only isolated natural avalanches are possible, even large ones in isolated cases. In addition an appreciable danger of moist slab avalanches exists. Weak layers in the upper part of the snowpack necessitate defensive route selection. Below approximately 1800 m mostly small moist and wet avalanches are possible.

Snowpack Structure

The snowpack remains generally moist. The weather will be colder than expected. The weather conditions will give rise to favourable bonding of the snowpack. Isolated avalanche prone weak layers exist in the snowpack on northeast, north and northwest facing slopes.
