Danger description

The new snow and wind slabs of the last four days are in some cases still prone to triggering at elevated altitudes. This applies in particular on steep shady slopes. Single winter sport participants can release avalanches, including large ones. Backcountry touring calls for experience in the assessment of avalanche danger and careful route selection.

Wet avalanches as day progresses

Medium-sized and, in isolated cases, large wet avalanches are possible. This applies in particular on north facing slopes below approximately 2400 m, as well as on east, south and west facing slopes in all altitude zones. Backcountry tours and off-piste skiing should be concluded timely.
