Danger description

As a consequence of new snow and a strong to storm force southerly wind, avalanche prone wind slabs formed. They can be released by people and reach large size in isolated cases. The number and size of avalanche prone locations will increase with altitude. Backcountry touring calls for experience in the assessment of avalanche danger and careful route selection. The fresh wind slabs are to be avoided.

Wet avalanches

Individual wet snow slides and avalanches are possible below approximately 2200 m.
