Danger description

Avalanches can in some cases be released in the old snowpack and reach large size. Even single snow sport participants can release avalanches. In addition the fresh and older 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.
