Wind slabs

Avalanche prone locations
In particular in southwest to north to southeast facing aspects above approximately 2000m.

In particular in southwest to north to southeast facing aspects above approximately 2000m.

Danger description

Somewhat older wind slabs represent the main danger. They are to be found in particular in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. At elevated altitudes the prevalence and size of these avalanche prone locations will increase. Careful route selection is required. The wind slabs are to be bypassed in particular in steep terrain.

Wet avalanches as day progresses

On steep east, south and west facing slopes gliding avalanches are possible, in particular below approximately 2000 m. In addition as the day progresses on south facing slopes, moist snow slides and avalanches are possible, in particular below approximately 2400 m.
