Isolated avalanche prone locations in persistent weak layer of old snow.
In isolated cases avalanches can be triggered from persistent weak layers on very steep shady slopes. These releases are mostly small-sized. The risks of falling and sustaining injuries outweigh those of being buried in snow masses.
Snowpack
The crusts which were generated overnight - breakable to capable-of-bearing-loads - soften up during the course of the day on sunny slopes, on shady slopes often remain frozen hard. The shallow snowpack is generally well consolidated and low in tensions. On shady slopes in high alpine regions, isolated weak layers still occur inside the snowpack. South-facing slopes are bare of snow up to high altitudes. Since there is only little transportable snow, increasing southerly winds in the foehn-exposed mountain regions can generate only small snowdrift accumulations. Only little information is currently available to the Avalanche Warning Service from outlying terrain.
