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.
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. In the south of the country, there is some wind slab snow on a crusted can form surface. On the sunny slopes, the snow cover, snowpack softens during the daytime changes. In shady slopes at high altitudes, there are isolated weak layers of faceted crystals in the snow cover, mostly in the vicinity of crusts. The fracture propagation potential is generally low due to the overall heavily built-up transformed snow cover.
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. On the one hand, where older wind slab snow has formed a suitable slab over a weak layer in the persistent weak layer. On the other hand, close to the surface in the wind slab of the last few days, which is still prone to triggering. In addition to the risk of burial, the main consideration should be the risk of entrainment.
A little wind slab lies on a hard-frozen surface. On the sunny slopes, the snow cover, snowpack softens during the daytime changes. In high, shady slopes, there is some bondless, angular snow under the melt-freeze crust, which can serve as a weak layer in exceptional cases. The potential for fracture propagation is generally low due to the overall heavily built-up transformed snow cover. Fractures within the snow cover are most possible in the thin wind slab or over the hard old snow foundation from early winter. The snow depth is well below average at all altitudes.
The avalanche danger remains low.
