Avalanche Activity

Weakly bonded old snow requires caution.

Even single winter sport participants can release avalanches in isolated cases. In particular shady slopes are dangerous, especially in areas close to the tree line, as well as above the tree line. In addition gliding avalanches are possible. This applies especially on cut and grassy slopes.

Snowpack Structure

The snowpack remains unstable in some places. Avalanche prone weak layers exist in the bottom section of the snowpack on shady slopes. The surface of the snowpack will only just freeze and will already soften in the late morning.

Tendency

Weakly bonded old snow requires caution. Increase in danger of wet avalanches as a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation.
