Individual avalanche prone locations for dry avalanches are to be found on very steep slopes above the tree line.

The small wind slabs of the last few days can be released by a single winter sport participant in isolated cases above the tree line. Individual avalanche prone locations are to be found adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls, especially on very steep slopes. They are easy to recognise. Restraint should be exercised because avalanches can sweep people along and give rise to falls.

As a consequence of a gusty wind from northeasterly directions, mostly small wind slabs formed since Friday. In isolated cases wind slabs are lying on soft layers. From a snow sport perspective, in most cases insufficient snow is lying.

Slight increase in danger of dry avalanches as a consequence of new snow and wind.
