Danger level

Avalanche Problem
Wind slab
Treeline
Gliding snow


Considerable avalanche danger above the treeline - caution wind slab problem!

The avalanche is above the treeline considerable. Danger spots which are formed due to fresh snowdrift are found especially in the expositions northwest via east till south. They can be triggered by small additional loads as slab avalanches. Spontaneous gliding-snow avalanches from steep, smooth slopes are possible.

Snowpack

Fresh snowdrift deposits are placed on top of an old snow cover with which it is often sufficiently bonded. Soft layers within the fresh cover or in shady slopes within the old snow near the surface can function as weak layers. On Monday around 35 cm new snow is called which will form - due to strong northwesterly wind influence - unevenly amounts of fresh snowdrift packs. Wetness from the ground can lead to a loss of friction of the snowcover in steep smooth slopes.

Tendency

From Tuesday on the influence of high-pressure system is noticable. Low clouds are persistent, but only few showers ar possible. In the Nordstau area maximum 10 cm new snow - temperatures are rising slowly. The wind slab problem is decreasing with the setteling of the snow cover. The gliding snow problem stays.

Moderate avalanche danger above the treeline - wind slab problem.

The avalanche is above the treeline moderate and below that low. Danger spots are formed due to fresh snowdrift are found in gullies and bowls especially in the expositions east till south. They can be triggered by small individuals as slab avalanches. Spontaneous gliding-snow avalanches cannot be ruled out.

Snowpack

Fresh snowdrift deposits are placed on top of an old snow cover with which it is often sufficiently bonded. Soft layers within the fresh cover or in shady slopes within the old snow near the surface can function as weak layers. Due to strong northwesterly wind influence increasing snowdrift deposits in gullies and bowls are to expect. Wetness from the ground can lead to a loss of friction of the snowcover in steep smooth slopes.
