Avalanche report for Saturday 1 February 2025.

Avalanches can in some places be released by a single winter sport participant and reach medium size.

all day it applies moderate avalanche danger, so danger level two.

all day, above 2000 meter, we have a persistent weak layer problem. Especially in the aspects West to North to North-East. Furthermore, all day, below 2400 meter, we have a gliding snow problem. Especially in the aspects East to South to West.

Winter sport participants can release avalanches in some places. This applies in particular at transitions from a shallow to a deep snowpack, when entering gullies and bowls for example. Avalanche prone locations for dry avalanches are to be found in particular on steep west, north and northeast facing slopes above approximately 2000 m. Mostly the avalanches are medium-sized. The avalanche situation is more favourable in highly frequented off-piste terrain. In addition medium-sized gliding avalanches are possible.

And now the snowpack:

Avalanche prone weak layers exist in the bottom section of the old snowpack in particular on west, north and northeast facing slopes. The old snowpack will be moist at low and intermediate altitudes. This applies in particular on south facing slopes. Above the tree line snow depths vary greatly, depending on the infuence of the wind.

The tendency for Sunday 2 February 2025 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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