Faceted weak layers exist in the bottom section of the snowpack between approximately 1600 and 2400 m. In particular on steep southwest, north and southeast facing slopes avalanches can be triggered in the weakly bonded old snow and reach large size in some cases, this applies even in case of a single winter sport participant. Caution is to be exercised in places that are protected from the wind in areas close to the tree line as well as above the tree line. Especially transitions from a shallow to a deep snowpack are unfavourable. The avalanche prone locations are barely recognisable, even to the trained eye. Remotely triggered avalanches are possible in isolated cases. Careful route selection and spacing between individuals are recommended. Below approximately 2400 m individual gliding avalanches are possible. The snowpack will be quite prone to triggering. Faceted weak layers exist in the bottom section of the snowpack. This applies between approximately 1600 and 2400 m. Weak layers in the old snowpack represent the main danger. dangerRatingMap Simplified danger rating map of the region https://avalanche.report/albina_files/2019-01-22/2019-01-21_16-00-00/cccb9511-93ac-4ea6-bbbb-e5e93a27785b.jpg website Link to region on the website https://avalanche.report/bulletin/2019-01-22?region=cccb9511-93ac-4ea6-bbbb-e5e93a27785b 2019-01-21T16:00:00Z 2019-01-21T23:00:00Z 2019-01-22T23:00:00Z Avalanche.report https://avalanche.report Central Stubai Alps considerable considerable 3 2 3 moderate 1 2 dp4 dp6 persistent_weak_layers SE N E W S NE NW SW 1600 2400 wind_drifted_snow N NE NW 2400 steady 2019-01-22T23:00:00Z 2019-01-23T23:00:00Z Weakly bonded old snow requires caution. Wind slabs are to be found adjacent to ridgelines and in the high Alpine regions. Weakly bonded old snow: Weak layers in the lower part of the snowpack can be released in some places even by individual winter sport participants between approximately 1600 and 2400 m. This applies especially at transitions from a shallow to a deep snowpack as well as in areas where the snow cover is rather shallow. Wind slabs: By Friday mostly small wind slabs formed especially adjacent to ridgelines. The wind slabs can be released by a single winter sport participant in some cases in particular on steep shady slopes above approximately 2400 m. The avalanche prone locations are clearly recognisable to the trained eye. On steep grassy slopes individual gliding avalanches are possible below approximately 2400 m. This applies in all aspects. Backcountry touring calls for restraint. Maintaining distances between individuals and one-at-a-time descents are recommended. The snowpack will be in some cases unstable. Faceted weak layers exist in the bottom section of the snowpack between approximately 1600 and 2400 m. The older wind slabs are now only very rarely prone to triggering.

Distinct weak layers deep in the old snowpack can be released even now by individual winter sport participants in particular on steep shady slopes. Avalanches can release the entire snowpack and reach large size in some cases. Avalanches can be released especially at transitions from a shallow to a deep snowpack, when entering gullies and bowls for example. These avalanche prone locations are quite prevalent and are barely recognisable, even to the trained eye. Whumpfing sounds and the formation of shooting cracks when stepping on the snowpack serve as an alarm sign. On steep grassy slopes individual small and medium-sized gliding avalanches are possible below approximately 2400 m. The somewhat older wind slabs are to be evaluated with care and prudence in particular in rocky terrain. In little used terrain the avalanche prone locations are more prevalent. Backcountry touring and other off-piste activities call for experience in the assessment of avalanche danger and careful route selection. Avalanche prone weak layers exist in the bottom section of the old snowpack. In some cases the various wind slabs have bonded still only poorly with each other and the old snowpack. Weakly bonded old snow requires caution. dangerRatingMap Simplified danger rating map of the region https://avalanche.report/albina_files/2019-01-22/2019-01-21_16-00-00/31d4c70e-3d03-45e0-aaec-2c14911df5f7.jpg website Link to region on the website https://avalanche.report/bulletin/2019-01-22?region=31d4c70e-3d03-45e0-aaec-2c14911df5f7 2019-01-21T16:00:00Z 2019-01-21T23:00:00Z 2019-01-22T23:00:00Z Avalanche.report https://avalanche.report Glockturm Range Grieskogel Mountains Weißkugel Range Gurgler Range Northern Oetz and Stubai Alps moderate moderate 2 3 2 moderate 1 2 dp2 dp1 wind_drifted_snow N NE NW 2400 gliding_snow SE E S W SW 2400 steady 2019-01-22T23:00:00Z 2019-01-23T23:00:00Z Gliding snow requires caution.
