Old wind slabs are to be evaluated with care and prudence.
The wind slabs can be released in all aspects above approximately 2400 m. Individual avalanche prone locations for dry avalanches are to be found adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. This applies in particular on steep shady slopes. Avalanches can reach medium size in isolated cases.
Snowpack
The wind slabs are clearly recognisable. Snow depths vary greatly above approximately 2400 m, depending on the infuence of the wind. Towards its base, the snowpack is faceted. Hardly any snow is lying below approximately 2400 m.
Tendency
The meteorological conditions will facilitate a gradual change towards better conditions.
Danger level
The backcountry touring conditions are generally favourable. Old wind slabs are to be evaluated with care and prudence.
In all regions only a little snow is lying.
Snowpack
The snowpack will be quite stable. Snow depths vary greatly above the tree line, depending on the infuence of the wind.
Tendency
The avalanche danger will persist.
Danger level
2400m
