Wind slabs require caution.
The fresh and somewhat older wind slabs can be released by a single winter sport participant in some cases in particular on west to north to southeast facing aspects. Avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. At elevated altitudes and in the regions exposed to heavier precipitation such avalanche prone locations are more widespread. In some cases avalanches are medium-sized.
As a consequence of solar radiation individual loose snow avalanches are possible, but they will be mostly small.
Only isolated gliding avalanches are possible, even medium-sized ones. Areas with glide cracks are to be avoided.
Snowpack
dp.6: cold, loose snow and wind
The fresh and somewhat older wind slabs are lying on soft layers in particular on shady slopes above the tree line.
The snowpack will be moist below approximately 2200 m.
Tendency
Wind slabs require caution. The weather conditions will bring about a stabilisation of the snow drift accumulations. As a consequence of solar radiation individual loose snow avalanches are possible.
