Very few danger zones
Avalanche danger is LOW. Only in few spots can large additional loading trigger a slab avalanche (persistend weak layer), most likely in shallow-snow transitions from little to much snow on shady, extremely steep slopes, where avalanches can grow to medium size nonetheless.
The snowpack shows huge effects of storm-strength wintery winds. The snowpack accumulations are well consolidated, often melt-freeze encrusted or hardened. Above the treelike the terrain is windblown, more snow lies in the bowls. Inside the old snowpack are soft layers of expansively metamorphosed (faceted) crystals which are unlikely to trigger except in isolated cases.
Monday will bring high-altitude cloudbanks, otherwise sunny, pleasant backcountry touring weather conditions. Light winds. At 2000 m: -1 degree. Tuesday will have diffuse light conditions, compact high-altitude cloud cover will dominate, sunshine will be impeded. Winds light. At 2000 m: +5 degrees.
No significant change is expected.
