Danger level



Wet avalanches are rare.

Avalanche danger is low. On very steep to extremely steep slopes, spontaneous releases of wet loose snow or glide-snow avalanches cannot be ruled out. Avalanches tend to be small.

Snowpack

A coherent snow cover is now rare to find. Only on the shady side above 1400m are there still larger snowfields in some places. The snow is completely soaked.

Avalanche Problem
Wet snow
1600m


Humidity within the snowpack increases.

Avalanche danger above 1600m is moderate. Wet snow can be problematic. On slopes with sufficient snow in extremely steep terrain, small wet loose-snow avalanches can trigger naturally or be triggered by persons. Isolated medium-sized wet glide-snow avalanches can release naturally at any time over smooth ground as well as on meadows or rock slabs.

Snowpack

Up to high altitudes the snowpack is becoming increasingly wet. Barely any layering left in the snowpack. South-facing slopes are widespread bare. In some places above approx. 1500m there is still a coherent snow cover on the shady side.

Tendency

Avalanche danger will decrease slightly.
