Avalanche Activity

Fresh wind slabs require caution.

As a consequence of a freshening wind from westerly directions, mostly small wind slabs will form adjacent to ridgelines. Afternoon: As a consequence of solar radiation more small dry loose snow avalanches are possible. This applies on extremely steep sunny slopes.

Snowpack Structure

The fresh wind slabs are lying on soft layers in particular on steep shady slopes above approximately 2000 m. The old snowpack will be moist. This applies in all aspects at low and intermediate altitudes. A little snow is lying.

Tendency

Fresh wind slabs require caution.
