Danger description

The older wind slabs are in individual cases still prone to triggering. They are to be found in particular adjacent to ridgelines and in pass areas. Avalanches can be released by people and reach medium size.
The wind slabs are to be evaluated with care and prudence in very steep terrain.

Gliding avalanches

Below approximately 2200 m gliding avalanches are possible, in particular on very steep sunny slopes.
