Avalanche Activity

The wind slabs must be evaluated with care and prudence. The new snow of the last three days can be released easily.

Over a wide area 30 to 50 cm of snow fell in the last three days above approximately 1900 m. At high altitude and in the regions exposed to heavier precipitation the avalanche prone locations are more prevalent. The fresh wind slabs can be released even by a single winter sport participant at elevated altitudes.

Snowpack Structure

The new snow can be released by a single winter sport participant in particular on steep shady slopes. Over a wide area new snow is lying on a weakly bonded old snowpack. As a consequence of a sometimes strong wind, easily released wind slabs formed. Gliding avalanches are possible below approximately 1700 m.
