Wind slabs are best managed by recognizing and avoiding areas where wind slabs have formed, until they have stabilized.
Characteristics
Wind Slabs form in specific areas, and are confined to lee and cross-loaded terrain features, typically steeper than 30+ degrees. Wind slabs can often be recognized by drifting snow or the appearance of the snow surface, changes in surface snow hardness, hollow, drum-like sounds and/or shooting cracks.
