Chiemgau Alps East

There are hardly any avalanches possible in the foothills.

There are hardly any avalanches possible in the foothills.

The avalanche risk is low. At high altitudes, small slab avalanches with a high additional load can be triggered in shady, extremely steep terrain.

At night, the snow surface cools and freezes. It softens again quickly during the day. In shady locations, it usually remains hardness throughout the day. At higher altitudes (above around 1500 metres), faceted crystals have formed close to the surface below the melt-freeze crust. Otherwise, the snow cover, snowpack is compact and stable. There is little snow. The southern sides are becoming increasingly snow-free up to high altitudes.

The amount of new snow remains low and the avalanche risk unchanged.
