Avalanche Activity

Generally low avalanche danger. Small-to-medium glide snow releases possible.

Due to higher temperatures and rainfall, danger of snowdrifts is diminishing, but on steep grass-covered slopes small-to-medium sized glide-snow avalanches can trigger naturally.

Snowpack Structure

The higher temperatures have stabilized the snowdrift accumulations which were formed in the last few days. On steep grass-covered slopes the snow is gliding.
