Kernpunkte
Wind slabs require caution.
Lawinenprobleme
Avalanche Activity
Wind slabs require caution.
Avalanches can in very isolated cases be released by a single winter sport participant, in particular on shady slopes above the tree line. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. Mostly avalanches are only small. Apart from the danger of being buried, restraint should be exercised as well in view of the danger of avalanches sweeping people along and giving rise to falls.
Snowpack Structure
As a consequence of a strong to storm force wind from northerly directions, rather small wind slabs will form. The wind slabs will be deposited on soft layers in particular on steep shady slopes. Faceted weak layers exist in the old snowpack especially on shady slopes. Snow depths vary greatly, depending on the infuence of the wind. Only a little snow is lying.
Tendency
Wind slabs require caution.
