Avalanche Activity

Low avalanche danger, but danger of falling

Avalanche danger is generally low. On high-altitude east-facing slopes there are snowdrift patches. Due to solar radiation, wet slides are possible on south-facing slopes.

Snowpack Structure

Older snowdrift accumulations on east-facing slopes at high altitudes are poorly bonded with the surface. Due to warmth and subsequent cooling the snowpack was able to consolidate. Due to solar radiation the snowpack swiftly forfeits its firmness, becomes moist-to-wet.

Weather Forecast

Perfect mountain weather on Tuesday. Sunny and mild. Light SW winds. At 2000 m: +4 to +7 degrees.

Tendency

The airstream will shift to northwesterly, cooler air masses will gradually move in. Heavy clouds will repeatedly appear, sunshine not be unhampered. Cooler. Avalanche danger levels are not expected to change significantly.
