At elevated altitudes a considerable avalanche danger will still be encountered.
The wind slabs of the last few days represent the main danger. They must be evaluated with care and prudence. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular at the base of rock walls and adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. As a consequence of warming during the day and the solar radiation, the likelihood of moist avalanches being released will increase gradually in particular on sunny slopes. Backcountry touring calls for experience in the assessment of avalanche danger and careful route selection.
Wind slabs remain in some cases prone to triggering. Weak layers exist in the snowpack in particular on shady slopes. The weather conditions will give rise to increasing moistening of the snowpack in particular on steep sunny slopes.
The weather will be mostly sunny. Further warming to the high Alpine regions.
