Lawinenprobleme
Avalanche Activity
The fresh and older wind slabs of the last few days represent the main danger.
As a consequence of a sometimes strong westerly wind, further wind slabs will form in the course of the day in particular in gullies and bowls and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. Caution is to be exercised in particular on near-ridge slopes above the tree line. As a consequence of the sometimes strong westerly wind the prevalence of these avalanche prone locations will increase as the day progresses. Hardly any more gliding avalanches are to be expected.
Snowpack Structure
As a consequence of the occasionally strong westerly wind, fresh snow drift accumulations will form in the course of the day. Shady slopes: The old snowpack consists of faceted crystals. The fresh wind slabs are lying on soft layers. Steep sunny slopes: The fresh wind slabs will be deposited on a crust.
Tendency
Fresh wind slabs are to be evaluated critically.
