Danger description

The large quantity of fresh snow and the sometimes large wind slabs represent the main danger. Single winter sport participants can release avalanches, including large ones. Individual natural avalanches are possible. Ski touring calls for experience in the assessment of avalanche danger.

Wet avalanches

Outgoing longwave radiation during the night will be severely restricted. More wet avalanches are possible. From starting zones where no previous releases have taken place in particular on north facing slopes these can in isolated cases reach large size.
