Slab avalanches are the main danger.
Gullies and bowls where weaknesses exist in the old snowpack are especially unfavourable. Avalanches can as before be released, in particular by large loads and reach medium size.
In the last few days sometimes deep wind slabs formed in particular in gullies and bowls and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. In gullies and bowls above approximately 1800 m a lot of snow is lying. In some places wind slabs are lying on a hard crust.
