Avalanche Activity

Low danger, due to glide-snow and wet-snow slides

Avalanche danger in the Prealps is low. Problem: gliding-snow. Isolated moist and wet loose-snow avalanches can trigger in steep rocky terrain. Avalanche releases are small. On very steep slopes over smooth ground, small wet glide-snow avalanches cannot be excluded.

Snowpack Structure

The snowpack is thoroughly moist up to high altitudes, at intermediate altitudes thoroughly wet. Also in transitions from the snowpack to the ground there is a wet layer reinforcing the gliding movement. Below 1500 m there is very little snow on the ground.

Tendency

Slightly rising avalanche danger on Monday due to fresh snow and wind at high altitudes.
