Danger description

Danger level 2 (moderate) will be reached by the middle of the day. As a consequence of new snow and a strong northerly wind, avalanche prone wind slabs will form. These are to be found in particular in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. Avalanches can be released by a single winter sport participant and reach medium size. Ski touring and other off-piste activities, including snowshoe hiking, call for careful route selection.
