Danger level
 |
The backcountry touring conditions are favourable.
Individual avalanche prone locations are to be found on extremely steep shady slopes above approximately 2400 m, especially in little used terrain. Extremely steep shady slopes are to be traversed by snow sport participants one at a time.
In addition the danger of wet avalanches will increase from midday. Especially on steep sunny slopes small to medium-sized wet loose snow avalanches are possible. In the regions with a lot of snow individual gliding avalanches are possible. Areas with glide cracks are to be avoided as far as possible.
Snowpack
dp.7: snow-poor zones in snow-rich surrounding
dp.10: springtime scenario
The snowpack will be stable over a wide area.
Shady slopes: In very isolated cases weak layers exist in the centre of the snowpack, especially above approximately 2400 m. The upper section of the snowpack is soft; its surface is loosely bonded and consists of surface hoar and faceted crystals.
Steep sunny slopes, below approximately 2600 m: The surface of the snowpack has frozen to form a strong crust and will soften during the day.
Tendency
Low avalanche danger will prevail. As a consequence of warming during the day and the solar radiation, the likelihood of wet avalanches during the day being released will increase a little.
