In the highest altitudes of the High Tatras the 1st avalanche danger level has been issued. In steep troughs, especially in southern orientations, a larger amount of snow, locally around 50cm, may be wind-bound, which may not be connected with the grassy base. There is a risk of slipping or loosening a small slide with a subsequent fall into steep rocky terrain.
Up to 30cm of new snow has fallen in the highest altitudes in the last 3 days, locally up to 50cm in steep couloirs and moguls. Another 10cm is expected during the day. The first snow of the season poses a risk especially in steep exposed terrain where there is a risk of falling over rock thresholds and walls. Please note the icy and snow-covered hiking trails, where there is a risk of losing your bearings and wandering off into unsteep terrain.
With the snowfall and the wind picking up.
