Stability: fair · Frequency: some
The snowpack remains subject to considerable local variations. The weather conditions gave rise to consolidation of the snowpack at low and intermediate altitudes. There is a danger of falling on the hard snow surface.
Some snow will fall.
At elevated altitudes a moderate avalanche danger will prevail. The wind slabs represent the main danger.
The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular at the base of rock walls and behind abrupt changes in the terrain and adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. In addition the wind slabs at elevated altitudes are prone to triggering in some cases still. Avalanches can be released, mostly by large loads.
