Wind slabs
Avalanche prone locations
In all aspects above approximately 1600m.
Danger description
The wind slabs of the last two days represent the main danger. They are to be evaluated with care and prudence especially in very steep terrain. Winter sport participants can release avalanches in isolated cases, including medium-sized ones. Backcountry touring and snowshoe hiking call for careful route selection.
Gliding avalanches
Below approximately 2000 m small to medium-sized gliding avalanches are possible, in particular on very steep sunny slopes.
