Danger level
 |
The avalanche danger is low. There is usually not enough snow for snow sports and avalanches can hardly be triggered.
There is no closed snow cover, snowpack and the terrain is mostly bare or there is a little new fallen snow on bare ground.
The avalanche danger remains low.

The avalanche risk is low. Small avalanches in particular can occasionally be triggered by one person in shady slope high alpine regions above 2600 metres. This occurs where the older foehn drift snow has formed a suitable shelf above a weak layer (usually in persistent weak layer). In addition to the risk of burial, the risk of falling and injury should be taken into account.
A little new fallen snow lies on a hard-frozen surface. On the sunny slopes, the snow cover, snowpack softens during the daytime changes. In high, shady slopes, the melt-freeze crust is partly covered by edged snow with no binding, which can serve as a weak layer in exceptional cases, but usually does not tend to propagate fractures. Fractures are most possible within the snow cover, above the hardness of the old snow foundation from early winter or in weak layers near crusts. The snow depth is well below average at all altitudes.
The avalanche danger remains low.

The avalanche danger is low. In gullies and bowls adjacent to the ridgeline, crests or summits in shady slopes, there are very isolated trigger points in persistent weak layers that are difficult to disturb. Only very rarely can drift snow packs be triggered there by individuals. Avalanches remain small.
The snow depth is well below average for the time of year. There is little new fallen snow on a hard-frozen surface or on bare ground. On sunny slopes, the snow cover, snowpack softens during the daytime changes. At high altitudes on the shady slopes, weak layers of faceted crystals remain in the snow cover, mostly in the vicinity of crusts.
The avalanche danger remains low.
