Avalanche Activity

The new snow of the last two days represents the main danger. This snow can be released easily or naturally in all aspects above the tree line. The new snow can be released by a single winter sport participant in all aspects above the tree line. Below approximately 2200 m small and, in isolated cases, medium-sized moist and wet avalanches are possible. Especially at the base of rock walls and behind abrupt changes in the terrain small and, in isolated cases, medium-sized dry and moist avalanches are possible as a consequence of the rain.

Snowpack Structure

10 to 25 cm of snow will fall on Sunday above approximately 2000 m. The sometimes storm force wind will transport the new snow significantly. The fresh wind slabs will be deposited on the unfavourable surface of an old snowpack in all aspects in all altitude zones. Towards its base, the snowpack consists of faceted crystals.
