Avalanche report for Thursday 19 December 2024.

Individual avalanche prone locations for dry avalanches are to be found on shady slopes at elevated altitudes.

all day it applies low avalanche danger, so danger level one.

As a consequence of a sometimes strong wind, clearly visible wind slabs formed in the last few days. These are mostly only small but can be released in isolated cases. Individual avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on very steep shady slopes above approximately 2400 m.

And now the snowpack:

As a consequence of a strong northerly foehn wind, small wind slabs formed in the last few days. These are in isolated cases prone to triggering on very steep shady slopes at elevated altitudes. The snowpack is faceted and weak, especially on west, north and east facing slopes above the tree line. On steep sunny slopes hardly any snow is lying. From a snow sport perspective, in most cases insufficient snow is lying.

The tendency for Friday 20 December 2024 indicates an increasing avalanche danger.

Have a nice day and don't forget to be careful!
