New snow, wet avalanches
Avalanche prone locations
In all aspects at all altitudes.
Danger description
As a consequence of new snow and a strong to storm force northwesterly wind, deep wind slabs formed at elevated altitudes. Even single snow sport participants can release avalanches, including large ones. This applies in particular above approximately 2600 m.
The rain gave rise during the night to thorough wetting of the snowpack at high altitude. Medium-sized and large natural wet avalanches are possible. This applies in particular below approximately 2600 m.
Backcountry touring and other off-piste activities call for experience in the assessment of avalanche danger and restraint.
