Wind slabs are to be avoided.
In particular above the tree line wind slabs formed, but in isolated cases also on wind-loaded slopes below the tree line. This applies especially in the Wilder Kaiser Mountains and in the Chiemgau Alps. Mostly avalanches are rather small but can be released in isolated cases by a single winter sport participant. The avalanche prone locations are to be found especially on wind-loaded slopes and in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. <br/> As a consequence of solar radiation wet loose snow avalanches are possible as the day progresses.
The wind slabs of the last few days have settled a little in all aspects. They are lying on soft layers on steep shady slopes, in particular in places that are protected from the wind. In its middle, the snowpack consists of faceted crystals, also on shady slopes. At elevated altitudes snow depths vary greatly, depending on the infuence of the wind.
As a consequence of mild temperatures the snowpack will settle. As a consequence of a strengthening wind from northerly directions, mostly small wind slabs will form in the course of the day.

Wind slabs require caution.
The wind slabs can be released in isolated cases. Individual avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on west, north and east facing slopes above approximately 2400 m and in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. In high Alpine regions these avalanche prone locations are to be found in all aspects. Fresh wind slabs are to be avoided especially in steep terrain. <br/> In steep terrain there is a danger of falling on the hard snow surface.
The fresh and older wind slabs are lying on soft layers in particular on shady slopes above approximately 2400 m, especially in places that are protected from the wind. The old snowpack will be subject to considerable local variations. <br/> Towards its surface, the snowpack consists of faceted crystals, in particular on shady slopes.
As a consequence of mild temperatures the snow drift accumulations will stabilise during the next few days.
