Weak layers in the lower part of the snowpack necessitate caution. The somewhat older wind slabs can be released by a single winter sport participant in some cases at high altitudes and in high Alpine regions. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. In particular northwest, north and east facing slopes are unfavourable. In high Alpine regions the avalanche prone locations are to be found in all aspects. Avalanches can penetrate deep layers and reach medium size in isolated cases. In some cases the various wind slabs have bonded poorly with the old snowpack. They are lying on top of a weakly bonded old snowpack in particular on northwest to north to east facing aspects. Sunshine and high temperatures will give rise as the day progresses to slight softening of the snowpack in particular on steep sunny slopes below approximately 2800 m. The snowpack will be subject to considerable local variations. Weak layers in the old snowpack necessitate caution. 2024-12-28T18:39:52Z Avalanche.report 2024-12-28T16:00:00Z 2024-12-29T16:00:00Z Avalanche.report 1 steady 2024-12-29T16:00:00Z 2024-12-30T16:00:00Z From a snow sport perspective, in most cases insufficient snow is lying. The avalanche prone locations are rare. The hard wind slabs can still be released in some cases in particular on very steep shady slopes at elevated altitudes. Such avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. Mostly avalanches are only small. Apart from the danger of being buried, restraint should be exercised as well in view of the danger of avalanches sweeping people along and giving rise to falls. Hard wind slabs are lying on soft layers in particular on shady slopes at elevated altitudes. The weather conditions will foster a stabilisation of the snow drift accumulations. <br/> Sunshine and high temperatures will give rise as the day progresses to slight softening of the snowpack in particular on steep sunny slopes below approximately 2800 m. The snowpack will be generally subject to considerable local variations. The hard wind slabs can only be released in isolated cases.
