Avalanche Activity

The southern sides are slowly becoming pale again.

The avalanche risk is low in the morning and increases to moderate during the daytime changes. Gliding avalanches can occur at any time of day in all aspects on steep slopes with smooth ground that have not yet been discharged. Glide cracks indicate the danger. With sunlight, wet snow becomes the main problem during the day changes. Especially in extremely steep terrain, wet loose snow avalanches release themselves. Avalanches can reach medium size and hit exposed hiking trails.

Snowpack Structure

Overnight, the snow surface freezes solid. The snowpack is completely soaked up to high altitudes. At lower altitudes, the south-facing slopes are thawing out again.

Tendency

The avalanche danger will hardly change on Wednesday.
