Field notes

Rolling snowballs, deep penetration when you step or ski, and small natural slides are clear signals that the Snow deposited on the ground in a multiplicity of layers.EAWS glossary is losing strength. After a clear, cold night the surface often freezes into a strong supporting Layer of hard-compacted snow resulting from a melt-freeze process or wind.EAWS glossary, and conditions are favourable in the early morning. After a warm, overcast night, the problem may be present from the start of the day. Plan early returns and watch the runout zones below you.

Avalanche Activity

Wet snow requires caution.

Only isolated wet avalanches are possible. Caution is to be exercised on extremely steep shady slopes. Mostly avalanches are rather small. Below approximately 2000 m from a snow sport perspective, in most cases insufficient snow is lying.
