Altitude
2000 - 4000m
Avalanche warning level
moderate (2)
Exposition
Snow condition
Very good snow conditions. The crevasse cover is excellent this year. Jungfrau summit doable without rock contact. Huts are full but it is spread out over the terrain
Snow quality
Good powder on north-facing and sheltered slopes above about 3300m. Otherwise, in many places, broken snow or bearing firn, especially on the Aletsch Glacier
Risks
Wind intensity: No Wind (0 km/h)
Sunburn is the biggest danger at the moment. There was also a fall accident today on the north side of the Aletschhorn near the Hasler Rippe. Conditions here looked good though. Wet avalanches from midday onwards from steep and rocky terrain can be avoided if you're on the move early. Firn from about 10.30 a.m. on the south-east side
Overall impression
Good weather great mountains. According to the hut keepers, all the normal routes here on the 4000 of the Bernese are currently very feasible. Observations in the terrain confirm this.
