Danger by Elevation
Active Avalanche Problems
The avalanche danger is assessed as "low". Nevertheless, there are isolated avalanche prone locations in shady areas at high altitudes where small slab avalanches can be triggered. On the sunny slopes, small wet snow slides and occasional gliding avalanches are to be expected.
Older pillows of wind drifted snow have settled and are hardly prone to triggering. However, a weak layer has formed in the transition to the largely stable old snow foundation in shady high areas. On the sunny slopes, the snowpack becomes moist and can begin to glide snow on a smooth surface.
