Snowpack Structure

During the night, a melt-freeze crust will form which is capable of bearing loads, then softens up during daytime hours. The slopes are largely bare of snow. Where there is a snowpack, it is thoroughly wet.

Weather Forecast

On Friday, quite sunny weather will prevail from the start, with some high-altitude cirrus clouds and daytime convective cloud build-up. Tendency towards showers will be low. Still light winds in the mountains, the zero-degree level just below 3000m. Temperature at 2000m: up to +7 degrees; at 3000m: -1 degree. Light to moderate westerly-to-northwesterly winds at high altitudes.

Avalanche Activity

Small wet-snow slides possible

On extremely steep slopes, persons can in isolated cases trigger wet loose-snow slides where there is still sufficient snow on the ground.
