Avalanche Activity

Wind slabs represent the main danger.

As a consequence of new snow and a strong wind from westerly directions, avalanche prone wind slabs formed since Friday. Avalanches can in some cases be released by a single winter sport participant and reach medium size. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on steep west, north and east facing slopes above approximately 2000 m. Caution is to be exercised in particular adjacent to ridgelines, as well as in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. These places are easy to recognise. Isolated whumpfing sounds and shooting cracks when stepping on the snowpack can indicate the danger.

Snowpack Structure

Fresh and somewhat older wind slabs are lying on top of a weakly bonded old snowpack in particular on wind-protected west, north and east facing slopes above approximately 2000 m. The old snowpack is faceted.

Tendency

Hardly any decrease in avalanche danger. As a consequence of low temperatures the snowpack can not consolidate.
