Avalanche Problems

Avalanche Activity

Low avalanche danger will prevail.

On extremely steep slopes small moist and wet snow slides are possible, in the event of solar radiation in particular. Avalanches can be released, in particular by large loads, but they will be small in most cases. Individual avalanche prone locationsLocations delineated by aspect or altitude where avalanches can trigger and people or objects are at risk.EAWS glossary are to be found on steep shady slopes at high altitude.

Outlook

→ Constant avalanche danger

Low avalanche danger will prevail.

Snowpack & Weather

Snowpack ▾

Shady slopes: Isolated avalanche prone weak layersSnowpack layer in which the crystals are poorly bonded and the layer has the potential to fail. Typical crystals in dry weak layers causing avalanches are : precipitation particles; surface hoar; faceted crystals; hollow crystals; graupel. Generally >1mm in size, loose grains with few bonds Wet weak layers can be formed by all snow crystal/grain types.EAWS glossary exist in the old snowpackSnow layers deposited from earlier precipitation, prior to fresh fallen snow. Old snow layers consist of metamorphosed snow crystals.EAWS glossary in particular on northwest, north and northeast facing slopes. Sunny slopes: The old snowpack will be moist. The weather conditions will give rise to thorough wetting of the snowpackSnow deposited on the ground in a multiplicity of layers.EAWS glossary at low and intermediate altitudes.
