Wind slabs
Avalanche prone locations
In particular in west to north to southeast facing aspects above approximately 2400m.
Danger description
The wind slabs of the last few days are in some cases prone to triggering. The number and size of avalanche prone locations will increase with altitude. In high Alpine regions the danger of dry avalanches is a little higher. Avalanches can in some places be released by people and reach large size in isolated cases. Backcountry touring calls for meticulous 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 below approximately 3000 m. Backcountry tours and ascents to alpine cabins should be concluded timely.
