Avalanche Activity

Watch out for places with blowing snow.

During the last snowfall period last week, 30 - 60 cm of new snow was added in our mountains. However, no new snow has been added in the last 4 days. The situation is gradually stabilising. The danger is concentrated in places where there are hard blown slabs. Smooth grassy slopes and very steep slopes above 35° are particularly dangerous.

Snowpack Structure

There are two distinct layers in the snow cover. Old frozen snow forms the base. The second layer is the new snow from Wednesday. These layers are stabilising.

Tendency

Declining
