Stability: very poor · Frequency: few
A latent danger of gliding avalanches exists.
Individual gliding avalanches are possible, in particular medium-sized ones. Areas with glide cracks are to be avoided. This applies in particular on steep grassy slopes below approximately 2600 m. At elevated altitudes small wind slabs will form. Individual avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on very steep shady slopes above approximately 2600 m.
The sometimes strong wind will transport only a little snow. The snowpack is largely stable.
