Avalanche Activity

Moist snow slides during the day require caution.

On very steep slopes moist snow slides are possible as the day progresses, but they will be mostly small. These can in some places be released by people or triggered naturally. Even a small avalanche can sweep people along and give rise to falls. Backcountry tours should be concluded early.

Snowpack Structure

In all regions less snow than usual is lying. At intermediate and high altitudes there are 20 to 50 cm of snow, and even more in some localities. On shady slopes at low altitude no snow is lying. Intermediate and high altitudes: The snowpack is largely stable and its surface consists of loosely bonded snow lying on a strong melt-freeze crust. On steep sunny slopes at low and intermediate altitudes no snow is lying. High altitudes: The surface of the snowpack will freeze to form a strong crust and will already soften in the late morning.

Tendency

Thursday: The danger of moist avalanches will persist.
