Avalanche problems

  • Wind slab

    • Below 1,900 m

Snowpack Structure

In some cases the various wind slabs have bonded poorly with each other and the old snowpack. They can be released easily especially at their margins. The wind slabs of the last four days are to be evaluated with care and prudence above the tree line.

Avalanche Activity

Wind slabs represent the main danger.

The wind was strong adjacent to ridgelines over a wide area. The sometimes strong wind has transported the new snow. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on wind-loaded slopes of all aspects above approximately 1900 m and at transitions from a shallow to a deep snowpack. The fresh wind slabs are to be found in particular adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls.
