Danger description

As a consequence of northeasterly wind, avalanche prone wind slabs formed in the last three days. These can be released by a single winter sport participant. Avalanches can reach medium size. The wind slabs are to be avoided. Backcountry touring calls for experience in the assessment of avalanche danger.
