Here, avalanches may penetrate near-ground layers. On the northern flank of the Alps, in Valais and in northern Grisons, avalanches may still become dangerously large. Many whumpfing sounds and remote avalanche triggering over larger distances are still being reported from Valais and northern Grisons.
