The wind slabs of recent weeks are poorly bonded with the old snowpack. Precarious weak layers exist deep in the old snowpack on little used shady slopes. In addition the danger of moist and wet avalanches will increase as the day progresses.
Friday: The avalanche danger will decrease.
Wind slabs represent the main danger. Weak layers in the old snowpack are treacherous. Moist and wet avalanches require caution.
Several medium-sized and, in isolated cases, large slab avalanches are possible in particular on wind-loaded slopes. Weak layers in the old snowpack can still be released in some places by individual winter sport participants. From early morning the likelihood of natural moist avalanches being released will increase gradually below approximately 2600 m. The avalanche prone locations are to be found especially at the base of rock walls and behind abrupt changes in the terrain, and in gullies and bowls. The avalanche prone locations are difficult to recognise. The current avalanche situation calls for great caution and restraint.
