Avalanche Activity

At intermediate altitudes most avalanches have already been released.

Avalanche danger above 1800m is moderate. Wet snow can be problematic on isolated slopes with sufficient snow. Possibility of small wet loose snow avalanches in extremely steep terrain. Medium-sized glide-snow avalanches are possible on slopes over smooth ground as well as on meadows or rock slabs.

Snowpack Structure

Up to high altitudes the snowpack is becoming increasingly wet. Barely any layering left in the snowpack. South-facing slopes are widespread bare. Above approx. 1500m there is mostly a continuous snowfield on the shady side.

Tendency

Heed wet snow at high altitudes in the next few days.
