Bregenzerwald Mountains

Predominantly favorable conditions - slightly increased danger levels due to higher temperatures

The below-average snowpack is well consolidated by and large. In high altitude pass and ridgeline zones, small fresh, often trigger-sensitive snowdrift accumulations require attentiveness. Esp. on steep shady slopes these drifts have been deposited atop loose snow and are prone to triggering. On sunny slopes the most recent snowfall is already moist and is forming a melt-freeze crust. During the daytime hours, this crust softens up again.

Nocturnal skies will be covered with high-altitude clouds. Saturday will have some foehn conditions in the morning hours, mild temperatures. High-altitude clouds will hamper the sunshine, provide diffuse light conditions. At 2000m: -1 to +3 degrees. Light winds from varying directions.

Avalanche danger levels expected to remain favorable also on Sunday

Predominantly favorable conditions - slightly increased danger levels due to higher temperatures

Due to higher temperatures and solar radiation, slides and increasingly frequent small wet avalanches as well as small-to-medium sized glide-snow avalanches are possible. Caution urged below glide cracks. Isolated triggerings are possible in extremely steep terrain. In high-altittude pass and ridgeline zones, small-area fresh drifts require attentiveness. They are occasionally prone to triggering. The danger of being swept along and forced to take a fall outweighs that of being buried in snow masses.
