Isolated avalanche prone locations in persistent weak layer of old snow.
In very isolated cases avalanches can be triggered in persistent weak layers on very steep shady slopes in high alpine regions. These releases are mostly small-sized. The risks of falling and sustaining injuries outweigh those of being buried in snow masses. At very high altitudes over minor areas, freshly generated but small-sized snowdrift accumulations require attentiveness.
Snowpack
The superficially breakable melt-freeze snowpack crust which forms at night softens up slightly during the daytime on sunny slopes, on shady slopes the snowpack surface often remains hard-frozen or breakable. At high altitudes. local, small-area snowdrifts occur. On shady slopes in high alpine regions isolated weak layers occur inside the snowpack. In some regions there is surface hoar on the surface. South-facing slopes are bare of snow up to high altitudes. Only limited information is currently available to the Avalanche Warning Services from outlying terrain.
