Avalanche Problem

Persistent weak layer above the treeline, N-NE-NW

The violent wind has transported only a little snow.

Currently there are favourable conditions over a wide area. The fresh wind slabs can as before be released by a single winter sport participant. Restraint should be exercised because avalanches can sweep people along and give rise to falls. Avalanche prone weak layers exist deep in the old snowpack in particular on shady slopes. Avalanches can be released in the weakly bonded old snow, mostly by large additional loads in isolated cases. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on steep northwest, north and northeast facing slopes above approximately 2000 m. At elevated altitudes avalanche prone locations are more prevalent.

Snowpack

The surface of the snowpack will freeze to form a strong crust. The mostly shallow wind slabs are to be evaluated with care and prudence in particular in extremely steep terrain.

Tendency

The backcountry and freeriding conditions are generally favourable. Fresh wind slabs require caution.

Danger level
Danger Level 1 - Low above 1700m
No Rating above 1700m
Avalanche Problem
Persistent weak layer above the treeline, N-NE-NW
Wet snow above the treeline, E-SE-S-SW-W

In the Etschtal and in neighbouring regions hardly any snow is lying on northwest and northeast facing slopes.

From a snow sport perspective, insufficient snow is lying.
The avalanche conditions are spring-like. In the late morning a low avalanche danger will persist in some regions. In steep terrain there is a danger of falling on the hard snow surface.
Midday and afternoon: As a consequence of warming and solar radiation a low danger of moist and wet snow slides will be encountered in some regions.

Snowpack

The surface of the snowpack will freeze to form a strong crust and will soften during the day.

Tendency

The avalanche conditions are favourable.
