Danger description

The near-surface layers of the snowpack can be released in some places by people. Mostly the avalanches are small. Careful route selection is recommended. Apart from the danger of being buried, restraint should be exercised in particular in view of the danger of avalanches sweeping people along and giving rise to falls.

Wet avalanches as day progresses

As a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation wet snow slides and avalanches are possible. This applies in particular on north facing slopes below approximately 2400 m, as well as on east, south and west facing slopes below approximately 3000 m. Backcountry tours and ascents to alpine cabins should be concluded timely.
