Avalanche Activity

Hikers: beware naturally triggered releases from above the trail

Avalanche danger is low. Main problem: wet snow. Small loose-snow avalanches can trigger naturally in extremely steep terrain, esp. in the sunshine. In addition, on steep slopes which have not yet discharged, glide-snow avalanches can release naturally over smooth ground, releases mostly small.

Snowpack Structure

During the mild, cloudy nights the snowpack can hardly consolidate. On sunny slopes and below 1600 m there is little snow on the ground, on south-facing slopes the ground is often bare up to summit level. As of midday the air will cool noticeably and a few cm of fresh snowfall is anticipated.

Tendency

Avalanche danger levels are not expected to change significantly.
