Danger description

As a consequence of new snow and a storm force northwesterly wind, sometimes large wind slabs formed. The new snow and wind slabs are prone to triggering. Even single snow sport participants can release avalanches. In addition natural avalanches are possible. Avalanches can in isolated cases release deeper layers of the snowpack and reach large size.
Backcountry touring and other off-piste activities call for extensive experience in the assessment of avalanche danger and restraint.
