Avalanche Activity

Hardly any snow beneath 1800m.

Avalanche danger is low. On steep slopes which have not yet discharged, small wet and glide-snow avalanches can trigger naturally.In N/E/SE aspects in summit zones, fresh snowdrift accumulations are prone to triggering.

Snowpack Structure

The snowfall limit is between 1700 m and 1900 m; at intermediate altitudes rainfall prevails. Only close to summits will the new snow be transported by strong westerly wind and will generate trigger-sensitive snowdrift accumulations on smooth encrusted old snow surfaces. Snow patches remaining at intermediate altitude are mostly encrusted and soft due to the rain. Below 1400m the ground has become widespread bare of snow.

Tendency

The avalanche situation will not change during the weekend due to mild weather and sunshine.
