Avalanche Activity

New loose snow on hard ground.

In Veľká Fatra, Lúčanská Mala Fatra and in the Kralovohoľa part of the Low Tatras the avalanche situation is generally favourable. Steep and very steep slopes may be dangerous, where freshly fallen new snow will not be well bonded to the older hard ground.

Snowpack Structure

After the warming and subsequent cooling, hard firn crust covers most of the area, which locally collapses. With the onset of snow, new snow coming from the south to the south-west will cover it. Ideally, 10-15 cm of snow will fall.

Tendency

Rising with increasing snowfall. Compiled by: Martin Bešinský
