Wind slabs and weakly bonded old snow require caution. Avalanches can as before be released easily. Avalanches can be triggered in the old snowpack. Mostly they are medium-sized. Caution is to be exercised in particular on steep west, north and east facing slopes above the tree line. The avalanche prone locations are difficult to recognise. Whumpfing sounds and the formation of shooting cracks when stepping on the snowpack serve as an alarm indicating the danger. Remotely triggered avalanches are possible in isolated cases. <br/> <br/> As a consequence of the occasionally strong wind, fresh snow drift accumulations will form. These are in some cases prone to triggering on northwest to north to east facing aspects above approximately 2200 m. Some snow will fall in particular in the north. Strong northwesterly wind: The fresh wind slabs will be deposited on surface hoar in some places above approximately 2200 m. This applies in particular on northwest, north and east facing slopes. <br/> <br/> Above the tree line: The snowpack will be prone to triggering. Distinct weak layers exist in the old snowpack. This applies in particular on west, north and east facing slopes. <br/> <br/> Below the tree line as well as steep sunny slopes: The snowpack is moist and its surface has a crust that is barely capable of bearing a load. Weak layers in the old snowpack necessitate caution. A sometimes treacherous avalanche situation will persist. 2026-02-13T07:00:00Z Avalanche.report 2026-02-12T16:00:00Z 2026-02-13T16:00:00Z Avalanche.report 3 1 DP6 DP1 old snow drifting snow steady 2026-02-13T16:00:00Z 2026-02-14T16:00:00Z Distinct weak layers in the old snowpack represent the main danger. In addition the wind slabs should be taken into account. Weak layers in the old snowpack can be released even easily by individual winter sport participants. Caution is to be exercised in particular on steep west, north and east facing slopes above the tree line. Avalanches can penetrate down to the ground and reach large size in isolated cases. Whumpfing sounds and the formation of shooting cracks when stepping on the snowpack and natural avalanches serve as an alarm indicating the danger. <br/> The avalanche prone locations are quite prevalent and are difficult to recognise. <br/> Remotely triggered avalanches are possible. <br/> The fresh and somewhat older wind slabs can be released easily or naturally. Distinct weak layers exist in the old snowpack. This applies especially on west, north and east facing slopes. The snowpack remains generally prone to triggering. <br/> The snowpack will be moist at low and intermediate altitudes. <br/> In particular at high altitude the wind slabs will increase in size additionally. The avalanche danger will persist. Above the tree line a treacherous avalanche situation will be encountered over a wide area. 2026-02-13T07:00:00Z Avalanche.report 2026-02-12T16:00:00Z 2026-02-13T16:00:00Z Avalanche.report 3 1 DP1 DP8 old snow drifting snow steady 2026-02-13T16:00:00Z 2026-02-14T16:00:00Z In little used terrain a sometimes treacherous avalanche situation will prevail.
