New snow
Avalanche prone locations
In particular in west to north to south facing aspects above approximately 1800m.
Danger description
The fresh snow and the wind slabs formed by the westerly wind are in some cases prone to triggering. The wind slabs are to be found in particular adjacent to ridgelines and in pass areas and generally at elevated altitudes. Winter sport participants can release avalanches in some places. Mostly these are small.
Careful route selection is recommended. Apart from the danger of being buried, restraint should be exercised as well in view of the danger of avalanches sweeping people along and giving rise to falls.
