Danger description

The new snow is lying on the unfavourable surface of an old snowpack on west to north to east facing aspects. As a consequence of a strong to storm force northwesterly wind, avalanche prone wind slabs will form. Avalanches can in some cases be released easily and reach medium size. Individual natural avalanches are possible. Backcountry touring and other off-piste activities call for experience in the assessment of avalanche danger.
