Low avalanche danger - only isolated avalanche prone locations
The avalanche risk is low. Occasionally, small slab avalanches can be triggered, especially in extremely steep and shady gullies and bowls. Avalanche prone locations as well as icy areas are often covered by some new fallen snow. Beware of persistent danger of falling!
Snowpack
There is still significantly less snow than average. A thin layer of fresh snow, only wind-blown in places, is covering the existing hard old snowpack or pale areas. Angular shapes can weaken the snow base, fundament.
Tendency
Often friendly mountain weather, no significant change in avalanche danger.

Low avalanche danger, but watch out for older wind slabs in the north and east aspects!
The avalanche risk is low. In a few places, pillows of wind drifted snow can be triggered as small slab avalanches, especially in extremely steep and shady gullies and bowls. Avalanche prone locations as well as icy areas are often covered by some new fallen snow. Beware of persistent danger of falling!
Snowpack
There is still significantly less snow than average. Surface hoar could form in places. The connection between small, older snowdrift accumulations and the old snowpack is poor in places. In addition, angular shapes can weaken the snow base, fundament.
