Avalanche Activity

Fresh wind slabs are to be evaluated with care and prudence. Avalanches can in isolated cases be released in the old snowpack.

The fresh snow and in particular the sometimes deep wind slabs can be released easily in all aspects. Avalanche prone locations are to be found especially adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls above the tree line. Weak layers in the old snowpack can be released in isolated cases in shady places that are protected from the wind. Avalanches can reach medium size in isolated cases. Restraint should be exercised because avalanches can sweep people along and give rise to falls. On steep grassy slopes mostly small gliding avalanches are possible.

Snowpack Structure

Especially in the east up to 25 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, has fallen. The fresh wind slabs are lying on soft layers in particular on steep shady slopes. Faceted weak layers exist in the bottom section of the snowpack on west, north and east facing slopes. The snowpack will be moist at low and intermediate altitudes.

Tendency

Saturday: The avalanche danger will persist.
