Pericolo valanghe
In sintesi
The avalanche danger is Low today. The exception to this will be in very steep terrain in the upper elevations where isolated pockets of shallow wind slab can be human triggered. These pockets will be low in volume and of greater concern when traveling above terrain traps such as cliffs, steep gullies and trees. Triggering these small slabs has the potential to knock you off your feet. Pay attention to signs of recent wind loading and only expose one person at a time. In all other terrain avalanches are unlikely today.
