The fresh and somewhat older wind slabs can be released easily. or in isolated cases naturally, in all aspects and generally at intermediate and high altitudes. The avalanche prone locations are to be found adjacent to ridgelines in all aspects and on little-used, rather lightly snow-covered shady slopes. The wind slabs are sometimes deep but can be released easily especially at their margins. Sometimes they are medium-sized. As a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation more frequent dry and moist snow slides are to be expected as the day progresses, even medium-sized ones. Individual gliding avalanches can also occur.

The conditions are treacherous for backcountry touring and other off-piste activities. The current avalanche situation calls for experience in the assessment of avalanche danger and caution.
