This applies on wind-loaded slopes in all altitude zones. Areas with glide cracks are to be avoided. Fresh wind slabs represent the main danger. The fresh wind slabs can in many places be released very easily. They are in some cases thick, especially in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain in areas close to the tree line as well as above the tree line. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in all aspects in all altitude zones. Places where surface hoar has been covered with snow are especially dangerous. In addition there is a danger of gliding avalanches. This applies on steep grassy slopes below approximately 2400 m as well as on sunny slopes. Areas with glide cracks are to be avoided. Snow sport activities outside marked and open pistes call for extensive experience in the assessment of avalanche danger and great restraint. The avalanche situation is more favourable in highly frequented off-piste terrain. Fresh wind slabs are bonding poorly with the old snowpack. They are lying on soft layers.

This applies on wind-loaded slopes especially in areas close to the tree line and above the tree line. Dry avalanches can in very isolated cases be released in near-ground layers by large loads. Fresh wind slabs represent the main danger. The fresh wind slabs can in many places be released very easily and reach medium size. Places where surface hoar has been covered with snow are especially dangerous. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in all aspects. In particular in areas close to the tree line and above the tree line avalanche prone locations are more prevalent. In very isolated cases dry avalanches can also be released in near-ground layers. This applies in particular on extremely steep shady slopes between approximately 2200 and 2600 m at transitions from a shallow to a deep snowpack. In addition there is a danger of gliding avalanches. This applies on steep grassy slopes below approximately 2400 m. Areas with glide cracks are to be avoided. Snow sport activities outside marked and open pistes call for extensive experience in the assessment of avalanche danger and great restraint. The avalanche situation is more favourable in highly frequented off-piste terrain. Fresh wind slabs are bonding poorly with the old snowpack. They are lying on soft layers. They are lying on surface hoar, also adjacent to ridgelines. In very isolated cases weak layers exist in the bottom section of the old snowpack. Some snow will fall during the night. In some regions moderate southwesterly wind. Outside marked and open pistes a precarious avalanche situation will persist. Fresh wind slabs are to be avoided. dangerRatingMap Simplified danger rating map of the region https://avalanche.report/albina_files/2019-01-27/2019-01-26_16-00-00/26adc953-b02f-443c-b701-a1d024ee937d.jpg website Link to region on the website https://avalanche.report/bulletin/2019-01-27?region=26adc953-b02f-443c-b701-a1d024ee937d 2019-01-26T16:00:00Z 2019-01-26T23:00:00Z 2019-01-27T23:00:00Z Avalanche.report https://avalanche.report Glockner Range Eastern Deferegger Alps Schober Mountains Central Stubai Alps Eastern Rieserferner Mountains Texel Mountains Western Pfunderer Mountains Eastern Pfunderer Mountains Durreck Range Western Rieserferner Mountains Val Müstair Alps Western Deferegger Alps Langtaufers Schnals Ridge Southern Stubai Alps Southern Zillertal Alps and High Tauern Saldurn-Mastaun Ridge considerable considerable 2 4 2 moderate 1 2 dp6 dp1 wind_drifted_snow SE N E W S NE NW SW treeline persistent_weak_layers N E W NE NW 1800 2500 steady 2019-01-27T23:00:00Z 2019-01-28T23:00:00Z Wind slabs and weakly bonded old snow require caution. As a consequence of a strong southwesterly wind, easily released wind slabs will form in all aspects. This applies in particular in areas close to the tree line as well as above the tree line. The number and size of avalanche prone locations will increase with altitude. <br/> Avalanches can also be released in the old snowpack and reach quite a large size especially in the regions with a lot of snow. In particular transitions from a shallow to a deep snowpack are dangerous. These avalanche prone locations are barely recognisable, even to the trained eye. In little used backcountry terrain avalanche prone locations are more prevalent and the danger is greater. Individual gliding avalanches can also occur. Backcountry touring and other off-piste activities call for experience in the assessment of avalanche danger and careful route selection. The wind will be strong. The fresh wind slabs will be deposited on the unfavourable surface of an old snowpack in all aspects. Precarious weak layers exist in the old snowpack in particular on steep west, north and east facing slopes. The snowpack remains quite prone to triggering. Some snow will fall in the evening in some localities. Some snow will fall during the night in some regions.

Weakly bonded old snow. As a consequence of a sometimes strong wind, easily released wind slabs formed in the last few days in all aspects. This applies in particular in areas close to the tree line as well as above the tree line. Fresh wind slabs are mostly small. They are clearly recognisable to the trained eye. The somewhat older wind slabs remain prone to triggering on west to north to east facing aspects, especially between approximately 1800 and 2500 m. Whumpfing sounds and the formation of shooting cracks when stepping on the snowpack can indicate the danger. Restraint should be exercised because avalanches can sweep people along and give rise to falls. The fresh wind slabs are bonding poorly with the old snowpack. They are lying on soft layers. They are lying on surface hoar, also adjacent to ridgelines. The somewhat older wind slabs are lying on top of a weakly bonded old snowpack. The snowpack will be subject to considerable local variations. From a snow sport perspective, in most cases insufficient snow is lying. The avalanche danger will persist. dangerRatingMap Simplified danger rating map of the region https://avalanche.report/albina_files/2019-01-27/2019-01-26_16-00-00/95c70424-0958-41bc-99b1-388172b8c1ab.jpg website Link to region on the website https://avalanche.report/bulletin/2019-01-27?region=95c70424-0958-41bc-99b1-388172b8c1ab 2019-01-26T16:00:00Z 2019-01-26T23:00:00Z 2019-01-27T23:00:00Z Avalanche.report https://avalanche.report Gröden Dolomites Prags Dolomites Sarntal Alps Sexten Dolomites Ortler Range Ulten Valley Southern Adamello Primiero - Pale di S.

Mostly avalanches are small but can be released in some cases by a single winter sport participant. The avalanche prone locations are easy to recognise. Weak layers in the old snowpack can be released in some places in particular in gullies and bowls. 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. The mostly small wind slabs are lying on the unfavourable surface of an old snowpack. Faceted weak layers exist in the snowpack. Only a little snow is lying.
