The avalanche risk is low. Fresh wind slabs can be problematic. Small snow slabs can be triggered in a few places in the steep terrain adjacent to ridgelines in the north-west to north to east aspects by a small additional load. The risk of falling and injury is greater than the danger of burial.
At higher altitudes (above 1500 m), small snowdrift accumulations lie in some places on soft layers that are prone to triggering. The old snowpack consists of several layers of harsh snow and rounding face crystals, whereby the layering increasingly dissolves at lower altitudes (below 1500 m) where it has become damp.
With falling temperatures and new fallen snow, the avalanche risk increases slightly at the weekend.
