Distinct weak layers in the old snowpack represent the main danger. In addition the wind slabs should be taken into account.
Weak layers in the old snowpack can be released even easily by individual winter sport participants. Caution is to be exercised in particular on steep west, north and east facing slopes above the tree line. Avalanches can penetrate down to the ground and reach large size in isolated cases.
The fresh and somewhat older wind slabs can be released easily or naturally. The avalanche prone locations are sometimes covered with new snow and are barely recognisable because of the poor visibility.
Snowpack
dp.6: cold, loose snow and wind
dp.1: deep persistent weak layer
Some snow will fall on Saturday over a wide area. Distinct weak layers exist in the old snowpack. This applies especially on west, north and east facing slopes. The snowpack remains generally prone to triggering.
At high altitude the wind slabs have increased in size additionally in the last two days.
The snowpack will be moist at low and intermediate altitudes.
Tendency
The avalanche danger will persist. Above the tree line a treacherous avalanche situation will prevail.
