Avalanche Activity

Wet snow represents the main danger.

Until the temperature falls individual small moist snow slides are possible. They can be released by people. Gliding avalanches can also occur.

Snowpack Structure

Up to high altitudes rain has fallen since Friday over a wide area. The surface of the snowpack will only just freeze and will soften during the day. Above the tree line snow depths vary greatly, depending on the infuence of the wind. At intermediate altitudes there are 40 to 80 cm of snow. On steep sunny slopes at low and intermediate altitudes no snow is lying.

Tendency

Monday: Slight increase in danger of dry avalanches as a consequence of the snowfall.
