Avalanche report for Tuesday 14 January 2025.

Wind slabs require caution.

all day it applies above 2200 meter moderate avalanche danger, so danger level two, below low avalanche danger, so danger level one.

all day, above 2200 meter, we have a wind slab problem. Especially in the aspects West to North to East.

As a consequence of a sometimes strong northeasterly wind, further wind slabs formed in particular in gullies and bowls and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. The fresh wind slabs can be released by a single winter sport participant in particular on west to north to east facing aspects above approximately 2200 m. Caution is to be exercised on near-ridge slopes.

And now the snowpack:

As a consequence of the occasionally strong northeasterly wind, fresh snow drift accumulations formed. The fresh and somewhat older wind slabs are lying on soft layers in particular on shady slopes above approximately 2200 m.

The tendency for Wednesday 15 January 2025 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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