Danger level

South-facing slopes are becoming increasingly bare.

Avalanche danger is low. Isolated old snowdrift accumulations can be triggered as small slab avalanches. Avalanche prone locations occur in extremely steep shady high altitude terrain. The risks of taking a fall outweigh those of being buried in snow masses.

Snowpack

The snowpack is largely stable. Under partly clear skies, a nocturnal melt-freeze crust capable of bearing loads will form in some places that will melt again in the sun. In north aspects at high altitude the snowpack surface is expansively metamorphosed (faceted) and still dry. Atop the snowpack surface there are isolated small older snowdrift accumulations. Part of the snowpack base is wet.

Tendency

For the time being avalanche danger remains low.
