Avalanche Activity

Sunshine and high temperatures will give rise as the day progresses to increasing moistening of the snowpack.

In some localities 10 cm of snow has fallen above approximately 2600 m. As a consequence of warming during the day and the solar radiation, the likelihood of moist and wet avalanches being released will increase gradually in particular on steep slopes above approximately 2100 m. The new snow can be released by a single winter sport participant. This applies in particular in gullies and bowls on steep slopes at high altitudes and in high Alpine regions. Backcountry touring calls for experience in the assessment of avalanche danger and careful route selection.

Snowpack Structure

Sunshine and high temperatures will give rise as the day progresses to increasing moistening of the snowpack in all aspects. These conditions will cause a gradual weakening of the snowpack. Below approximately 1900 m hardly any snow is lying.
