Avalanches can be released in near-surface layers of the snowpack. <br/> Additionally avalanches can also penetrate near-ground layers of the snowpack and reach large size on west, north and east facing slopes. Whumpfing sounds and the formation of shooting cracks when stepping on the snowpack and fresh avalanches serve as an alarm indicating the danger. Remotely triggered avalanches are possible. <br/> <br/> As a consequence of the strong to storm force foehn wind from the north more natural avalanches are possible. This applies in case of releases originating from very steep leeward starting zones, in particular at the base of rock walls and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. <br/> <br/> As a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation wet small and medium sized avalanches are possible. This applies especially on very steep slopes."},"snowpackStructure":{"comment":"20 to 40 cm of snow, and up to 60 cm in some localities, has fallen since Thursday.
