Avalanche Activity
Wind slabs are to be evaluated with care and prudence.
As a consequence of a storm force wind, further wind slabs will form in all aspects. These are in some cases prone to triggering in particular on steep northwest, north and east facing slopes. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular in steep terrain above approximately 2200 m and in gullies and bowls. The prevalence of these avalanche prone locations will increase with altitude. Single persons can release avalanches in some places. Mostly these are rather small. Fresh and somewhat older wind slabs are to be bypassed in particular in very steep terrain.
Snowpack Structure
The sometimes storm force wind will transport the snow. Above approximately 2200 m snow depths vary greatly, depending on the infuence of the wind. The fresh and older wind slabs are bonding poorly with the old snowpack in particular on shady slopes and generally at elevated altitudes. The old snowpack consists of faceted crystals, especially on shady slopes.
Tendency
Wind slabs represent the main danger.
