Danger level

The wind slabs represent the main danger.
The fresh snow of Thursday and in particular the sometimes deep wind slabs must be evaluated with care and prudence in all aspects and above the tree line. The fresh wind slabs are bonding only slowly with the old snowpack. These can be released easily by a single winter sport participant. Mostly the avalanches are medium-sized.
The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls in all aspects. The sometimes large wind slabs are clearly recognisable to the trained eye. They are to be avoided whenever possible.
Snowpack
dp.6: cold, loose snow and wind
Over a wide area 15 to 30 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, has fallen since Wednesday above approximately 1500 m. More recent wind slabs are poorly bonded with the old snowpack above the tree line. Snow depths vary greatly, depending on the infuence of the wind.
Towards its base, the snowpack is largely stable.
Tendency
The avalanche danger will persist.
