Danger description

The new snow of last week is in some cases still prone to triggering in particular on steep shady slopes. Single snow sport participants can release avalanches, including medium-sized ones. In very isolated cases avalanches can release the weakly bonded old snow as well. This applies in particular on very steep north facing slopes in little used backcountry terrain.
Ski touring calls for experience in the assessment of avalanche danger.

Wet avalanches as day progresses

As a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation wet avalanches are possible as the day progresses. Backcountry tours and off-piste skiing should be concluded timely.
