In all aspects above approximately 2000m.

Danger description

Fresh and somewhat older wind slabs are mostly small and can only be released in isolated cases. Additionally in very isolated cases avalanches can be triggered in the old snowpack and reach medium size, in particular on steep north facing slopes. Careful route selection is recommended.

Wet avalanches as day progresses

As a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation individual moist and wet snow slides are possible.
