Highlights

The fresh and older wind slabs are covered with new snow in some cases and therefore difficult to recognise. They can be released by a single winter sport participant in isolated cases.

The fresh and somewhat older wind slabs can be released by a single winter sport participant in isolated cases. The new snow-covered wind slabs are covered with new snow and therefore difficult to recognise. At high altitude and on wind-loaded slopes the likelihood of avalanches is higher. The sometimes strong wind will transport the new snow.

Snowpack Structure

The sometimes avalanche-prone wind slabs of recent weeks are poorly bonded with the old snowpack. Low and intermediate altitudes, sunny slopes: The snowpack is largely stable and its surface has a melt-freeze crust.
