Danger description

As a consequence of new snow and northerly wind, mostly small wind slabs formed. This also applies adjacent to ridgelines in all aspects. On Tuesday they will increase in size once again. In some places new snow and wind slabs are lying on the soft surface of an old snowpack. Avalanches can in some places be released easily. They can in isolated cases reach medium size. Backcountry touring and other off-piste activities call for careful route selection.
