Low-volume drift snow and rare avalanche prone locations in old snow
The avalanche danger is low. In shady slopes at high altitudes from around 2600 m, fresh packs of prone-to-triggering drift snow have formed. Small and near-surface avalanches in particular can easily be triggered there in a few places, especially in extremely steep gullies and bowls and behind ridgelines. In these areas, there are still isolated trigger points for small avalanches in the old snow.
Snowpack
The snow cover, snowpack is moist or even wet due to heat and rain up to medium to high altitudes. There are crusts on the surface and inside the snow cover, snowpack. In their vicinity, angular crystals can still be found at shady slopes, which can occasionally serve as a weak layer. The snow depth is well below average at all altitudes.
Tendency
The avalanche danger remains low.
Danger level
Injury from stones and falling are the main dangers.
The avalanche danger is low. In shady slopes, fresh drift snow packs can be triggered in places by individuals, avalanches usually remain small. In areas adjacent to the ridgeline, crest or summit, there are isolated trigger points for mainly small avalanches that are difficult to disturb, even in old snow.
Snowpack
The snow depth is well below average for the time of year, low to medium altitudes and the sunny slopes are widely covered in snow. The snow cover, snowpack will be soaked far up during the daytime changes. In shady slopes, weak layers of angular crystals still remain in the snow cover, snowpack, mostly in the vicinity of crusts.
Tendency
The avalanche danger remains low.
Danger level
Lack of snow and stones are the main dangers.
The avalanche danger is low. There is usually not enough snow for snow sports and avalanches can hardly be triggered.
Snowpack
There is no closed snow cover, snowpack and the terrain is mostly bare.
