Wind slabs
Avalanche prone locations
In particular in west to north to south facing aspects above approximately 1800m.
Danger description
As a consequence of new snow and northwesterly wind, easily released wind slabs will form. Even single winter sport participants can release avalanches in some places, including medium-sized ones. Backcountry touring and other off-piste activities call for careful route selection.
Gliding avalanches
More small to medium-sized gliding avalanches are possible below approximately 2200 m.
