The fresh wind slabs can be released easily. or in isolated cases naturally, in all aspects and generally above the tree line. The number and size of avalanche prone locations will increase with altitude. <br/> Weak layers in the old snowpack are difficult to recognise.

A latent danger of gliding avalanches exists. Areas with glide cracks are to be avoided as far as possible. The fresh wind slabs are lying on soft layers in all aspects.

The more recent wind slabs can be released by a single winter sport participant in all aspects above approximately 2000 m. The number and size of avalanche prone locations will increase with altitude. Avalanches can also penetrate deep layers and reach dangerously large size. Weak layers in the old snowpack can still be released in isolated cases by individual winter sport participants in particular in areas where the snow cover is rather shallow. <br/> A latent danger of gliding avalanches exists. Areas with glide cracks are to be avoided as far as possible. As a consequence of a moderate to strong wind from northeasterly directions, dangerous wind slabs formed in the last three days, especially adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls above the tree line. The various wind slabs have bonded poorly together. They are to be avoided as far as possible. <br/> Faceted weak layers exist in the centre of the snowpack in particular above the tree line. This applies in all aspects. <br/> Towards its base, the snowpack is moist and its surface has a melt-freeze crust, in particular at low and intermediate altitudes. The weather will be partly cloudy. As a consequence of rising temperatures and the snow drift accumulations will stabilise during the next few days. Fresh wind slabs require caution. In addition a latent danger of gliding avalanches exists. dangerRatingMap Simplified danger rating map of the region https://avalanche.report/albina_files/2021-02-15/2021-02-14_16-00-00/4e919b49-7a7c-4d5a-b836-14d9efae9f7b.jpg website Link to region on the website https://avalanche.report/bulletin/2021-02-15?region=4e919b49-7a7c-4d5a-b836-14d9efae9f7b 2021-02-14T16:00:00Z 2021-02-14T23:00:00Z 2021-02-15T23:00:00Z Avalanche.report https://avalanche.report Glockner Range Eastern Deferegger Alps Schober Mountains Lienzer Dolomites Eastern Rieserferner Mountains moderate treeline no_rating no_rating low treeline no_rating no_rating dp6 wind_drifted_snow SE E SW W NW S N NE treeline moderate moderate 2 3 2 steady 2021-02-15T23:00:00Z 2021-02-16T23:00:00Z Wind slabs require caution.

Wind slabs can still be released by a single winter sport participant. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain above approximately 1600 m. The number and size of avalanche prone locations will increase with altitude. Avalanches can in isolated cases penetrate deep layers and reach large size. <br/> Dry avalanches can additionally in isolated cases be released in the weakly bonded old snow by small loads, especially at transitions from a shallow to a deep snowpack, when entering gullies and bowls for example. These avalanche prone locations are barely recognisable, even to the trained eye. They are to be found in particular on west to north to east facing aspects above approximately 2000 m. The fresh and older wind slabs are lying on soft layers above approximately 1600 m. <br/> Avalanche prone weak layers exist in the centre of the snowpack, especially between approximately 2000 and 2400 m on steep west, north and east facing slopes. As a consequence of new snow and a sometimes strong northwesterly wind, further wind slabs will form. dangerRatingMap Simplified danger rating map of the region https://avalanche.report/albina_files/2021-02-15/2021-02-14_16-00-00/6f6299c8-e3d6-4a9d-a21b-f15fee0c54a7.jpg website Link to region on the website https://avalanche.report/bulletin/2021-02-15?region=6f6299c8-e3d6-4a9d-a21b-f15fee0c54a7 2021-02-14T16:00:00Z 2021-02-14T23:00:00Z 2021-02-15T23:00:00Z Avalanche.report https://avalanche.report Karwendel Mountains Brandenberg Alps Western Kitzbühel Alps Wilder Kaiser Mountains - Waidring Alps Eastern Kitzbühel Alps moderate 1800 no_rating no_rating low 1800 no_rating no_rating dp6 wind_drifted_snow SE E SW W NW S N NE 1800 moderate moderate 2 3 2 steady 2021-02-15T23:00:00Z 2021-02-16T23:00:00Z Wind slabs require caution.

The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. These places are clearly recognisable to the trained eye. <br/> Weak layers in the old snowpack can still be released in very isolated cases by individual winter sport participants. This applies at high altitude, in particular in the Western Kitzbühel Alps. In some cases the various wind slabs have bonded still only poorly together. As a consequence of low temperatures the snowpack can not consolidate. Individual weak layers exist in the centre of the snowpack. At low altitude a little snow is lying. Slight increase in avalanche danger as a consequence of new snow and strong wind.
