Aimsir i Evolène

Snowpack Since Monday, snowfall has occurred at high altitudes, accompanied by moderate southwesterly winds. Further snowfall is expected above 2400 m until Thursday afternoon, particularly along the northern Alpine ridge and the main Alpine ridge.
The new snow lies mainly on shaded slopes above approximately 2400 m, on top of a thin, mostly faceted old snowpack. Consequently, fractures are expected to occur within the old snowpack, particularly in areas where a continuous snow cover was already present before the snowfall.
