Avalanche Activity

Wind slabs require caution.

As a consequence of new snow and a moderate wind from variable directions, avalanche prone wind slabs formed in particular adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. These can be released even by a single winter sport participant in particular on northwest to north to east facing aspects above approximately 1800 m. Individual avalanche prone locations are to be found also on wind-protected south facing slopes. In isolated cases avalanches are medium-sized. Apart from the danger of being buried, restraint should be exercised in particular in view of the danger of avalanches sweeping people along and giving rise to falls.

Snowpack Structure

5 to 20 cm of snow has fallen since Friday. In some cases the various wind slabs have bonded poorly with each other and the old snowpack. The old snowpack consists of faceted crystals. The snowpack will be generally subject to considerable local variations. Only a small amount of snow is lying for the time of year in all altitude zones.

Tendency

Wind slabs are to be evaluated with care and prudence.
