This applies in particular on steep northwest, north and northeast facing slopes between approximately 2000 and 2800 m. The avalanche prone locations are rare but are barely recognisable, even to the trained eye. Some new snow: In some localities up to 5 cm of snow will fall above approximately 1300 m. The avalanche danger will persist.
