Avalanche Activity

The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on southwest to north to southeast facing wind-loaded slopes above approximately 2300 m.

The fresh and somewhat older wind slabs are in some cases prone to triggering. They can be released by a single winter sport participant. This applies in particular adjacent to ridgelines and in pass areas. The wind slabs are barely recognisable because of the poor visibility.

Snowpack Structure

In particular along the border with France, along the border with Switzerland 2 to 10 cm of snow will fall above approximately 1300 m. At high altitudes and in high Alpine regions snow depths vary greatly, depending on the infuence of the wind.

Tendency

The avalanche danger will persist.
