Danger level

The wind slabs represent the main danger.
In particular adjacent to ridgelines as well as in high Alpine regions further wind slabs formed. This applies especially adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. The avalanche prone locations are rather rare and are therefore clearly recognisable to the trained eye. The wind slabs of the last few days can be released easily above approximately 2200 m. Caution is to be exercised at their margins in particular. Mostly the avalanches are small.
In isolated cases avalanches can be triggered in the weakly bonded old snow. Such avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on extremely steep shady slopes above approximately 2600 m.
In very isolated cases avalanches are medium-sized.
Even a small avalanche can sweep snow sport participants along and give rise to falls.
Snowpack
dp.6: cold, loose snow and wind
The fresh and older wind slabs are lying on soft layers in particular on shady slopes at elevated altitudes. The wind slabs have bonded poorly with the old snowpack.
Faceted weak layers exist in the bottom section of the old snowpack in particular on wind-protected shady slopes.
The snowpack will be generally subject to considerable local variations.
Over a wide area a little snow is lying.
Tendency
The avalanche danger will persist.
