Very isolated avalanche prone locations are to be found on very steep shady slopes at elevated altitudes.

The wind slabs can be released by a single winter sport participant in isolated cases in particular on very steep shady slopes at elevated altitudes. Caution is to be exercised in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. Avalanches are small.

The wind slabs are lying on unfavourable layers at elevated altitudes. The old snowpack consists of faceted crystals. The snowpack will be generally subject to considerable local variations. Only a small amount of snow is lying for the time of year in all altitude zones.

Low avalanche danger will prevail.
