Old snow
Avalanche prone locations
In particular in southwest to north to southeast facing aspects above approximately 2000m.
Danger description
The new snow and wind slabs of the last few days are lying on top of a weakly bonded old snowpack. Avalanches can be released, even by a single winter sport participant and reach medium size. Whumpfing sounds and the formation of shooting cracks when stepping on the snowpack serve as an alarm indicating the danger. Defensive route selection is important.
