Avalanche Problem

Caution is to be exercised in areas with glide cracks.

Individual gliding avalanches are possible, even large ones in isolated cases, especially in the regions with a lot of snow below approximately 2600 m. Areas with glide cracks are to be avoided as far as possible.
Fresh wind slabs require caution. The fresh wind slabs are small. Isolated avalanche prone locations are to be found on extremely steep shady slopes at high altitudes and in high Alpine regions and adjacent to ridgelines.

Snowpack

dp 2: gliding snow

The fresh wind slabs have bonded quite well with the old snowpack. The old snowpack will be moist below the tree line.

Tendency

The avalanche danger will persist. The snow sport conditions outside marked and open pistes are generally favourable.
