Avalanche prone locations
In all aspects above approximately 1800m.
Danger description
As a consequence of new snow and a strong northerly wind, avalanche prone wind slabs formed in the last few days. They are to be found in particular in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. Avalanches can in some places be released easily and reach medium size. The wind slabs are to be avoided in steep terrain.
