SnowpackThe new snow and wind-drifted snow from recent days are still partly prone to triggering, especially on shaded slopes in high alpine terrain. At the transition to the underlying old snowpack, coarse-grained weak layers are still present in some places, particularly on north- and east-facing slopes at higher elevations.
