Danger description

The wind slabs of the last few days can be released by a single winter sport participant in some cases. They are to be evaluated with care and prudence in steep terrain. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain.

Wet avalanches as day progresses

As a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation gliding avalanches and wet snow slides are to be expected.
