Avalanche problems

  • Wind slab

    • Above 2,200 m

Avalanche Activity

Fresh wind slabs require caution.

As a consequence of a storm force wind from northwesterly directions, wind slabs will form especially adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. The wind slabs are mostly rather small and can only be released in isolated cases. This applies especially on very steep northwest, north and east facing slopes above approximately 2200 m.

Snowpack Structure

The old snowpack will be well bonded over a wide area. In some regions some new snow. As a consequence of a storm force northwesterly wind, mostly small wind slabs will form. In very isolated cases wind slabs are lying on soft layers. This applies on shady slopes above approximately 2200 m.

Tendency

The avalanche conditions remain generally favourable.
