Avalanche report for Friday 24 January 2025.

A mostly favourable avalanche situation will prevail.

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

The small wind slabs can be released in isolated cases on extremely steep shady slopes at elevated altitudes. Caution is to be exercised on near-ridge slopes, as well as in gullies and bowls. The avalanche prone locations are rare and are clearly recognisable to the trained eye. Restraint should be exercised because avalanches can sweep people along and give rise to falls.

And now the snowpack:

As a consequence of a moderate to strong wind from southwesterly directions, small wind slabs formed since Wednesday in isolated cases, especially on near-ridge north and east facing slopes at elevated altitudes. Only a small amount of snow is lying for the time of year. Above the tree line snow depths vary greatly, depending on the infuence of the wind. On steep sunny slopes below the tree line hardly any snow is lying. The spring-like weather conditions as the day progresses will give rise to softening of the snowpack also above the tree line.

The tendency for Saturday 25 January 2025 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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