Avalanche prone locations
In all aspects above approximately 2600m.
Danger description
The large quantity of fresh snow and the sometimes large wind slabs represent the main danger. Backcountry tourers can release avalanches, including large ones. Very isolated natural avalanches are further 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 natural 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 very large size. As a consequence of solar radiation more frequent moist loose snow avalanches are to be expected.
