Avalanche Activity

Places with blowing snow are more dangerous

Places with blowing snow are particularly dangerous, as even a heavy load can trigger a small to medium-sized avalanche.

Snowpack Structure

There is relatively little snow. The snow base is uneven due to the influence of the wind. There is some light snow in the lee, but the snow base is mostly hard and Crust. More caution is needed, especially in places where the wind has created new snow layers.

Weather Forecast

On Friday, clouds will increase, with peaks more and more often in the clouds. There is possible occasional light snow showers and snow showers. There will be moderate westerly winds, possibly strong in the high alpine regions. Temperatures will be around -2 °C at 1500 m and -6 °C at 2500 m.

Tendency

Relatively strong winds will carry small amounts of snow, especially in the High alpine regions. On Friday, there will be occasional snow. Around 5 cm of snow is expected.
