Danger description

The fresh wind slabs represent the main danger. As a consequence of the northwesterly wind these will increase in size moderately. Avalanches can be released by a single winter sport participant and reach dangerously large size. Backcountry touring and other off-piste activities call for experience in the assessment of avalanche danger and careful route selection.

Gliding avalanches

More small to medium-sized gliding avalanches are possible below approximately 2200 m.
