Avalanche report for Tuesday 7 January 2025.

New snow and wind slabs require caution.

all day it applies above 1500 meter considerable avalanche danger, so danger level three, below low avalanche danger, so danger level one.

all day, above 1500 meter, we have a new snow problem. This in all aspects.

The new snow represents the main danger. This snow can be released very easily in all aspects at intermediate and high altitudes. As a consequence of snowfall and the strong wind, fresh snow drift accumulations will form. These can be released easily by a single winter sport participant in all aspects above the tree line. At high altitude and in the regions exposed to heavier precipitation these avalanche prone locations are more prevalent, caution is to be exercised in particular at transitions from a shallow to a deep snowpack, when entering gullies and bowls for example.

And now the snowpack:

In particular from the Adamello- Presanella to the Brenta Range up to 50 cm of snow will fall above approximately 1500 m. The fresh wind slabs are bonding poorly with the old snowpack in all aspects above the tree line. Shady slopes: The old snowpack is faceted.

We have the following danger patterns: dp.6: cold, loose snow and wind.

The tendency for Wednesday 8 January 2025 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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