Danger description

Weak layers in the old snowpack can be released in some places by individual winter sport participants. This applies in particular at transitions from a shallow to a deep snowpack. Medium-sized and, in isolated cases, large avalanches are possible.
In addition the fresh wind slabs are prone to triggering in some cases. Backcountry touring and other off-piste activities call for experience in the assessment of avalanche danger and careful route selection.
