Avalanche Activity

Fresh wind slabs require caution.

As a consequence of a sometimes strong northeasterly wind, further wind slabs formed in particular in gullies and bowls and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. The fresh wind slabs can be released by a single winter sport participant in isolated cases in particular on steep shady slopes above approximately 2200 m. Caution is to be exercised on near-ridge slopes.

Snowpack Structure

As a consequence of the occasionally strong northeasterly wind, fresh snow drift accumulations formed. The fresh and somewhat older wind slabs are lying on soft layers in particular on shady slopes above approximately 2200 m.

Tendency

Fresh wind slabs require caution.
