Avalanche Activity

Fresh snowdrifts prone to triggering

Avalanche danger 2000m is moderate, below that altitude danger is low. Main problem: snowdrift accumulations. These can trigger a medium-sized avalanche by one sole skier/snowboarder. Avalanche prone locations occur in steep shady terrain on N/E/SE facing slopes and in wind-loaded gulles and bowls, medium-sized releases possible. Size and frequency of danger zones tend to increase with ascending altitude and during the course of the day. In addition, wet snow is a problem, it can trigger naturally on very steep slopes as a loose-snow avalanche on smooth grassy slopes and over rock plates. Possibility of medium-sized glide-snow avalanches on steep smooth grass-covered slopes in all aspects, releases mostly small-sized.

Snowpack Structure

The snowpack is mostly dry at high altitudes. Fresh snowdrifts are accumulating from southerly and westerly winds. Weak layers are evident inside the old snowpack, older drifts have largely consolidated. The snowpack base is moist-to-wet down to the ground and is forfeiting its firmness. Gliding snow is possible.

Tendency

Avalanache danger will increase somewhat due to forecast snowfall
