Avalanche report for Wednesday 19 February 2025.

A generally favourable avalanche situation will prevail.

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

Wind slabs are in individual cases still prone to triggering on extremely steep north and east facing slopes at elevated altitudes. The avalanche prone locations are rare and are clearly recognisable to the trained eye. Such avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular adjacent to ridgelines and in pass areas. The more recent wind slabs are to be avoided in terrain where there is a danger of falling. On steep grassy slopes individual small to medium-sized gliding avalanches are possible. This applies in particular in the west and below approximately 2400 m.

And now the snowpack:

The weather conditions facilitated a strengthening of the near-surface layers. The mostly shallow wind slabs of the last few days have bonded quite well with the old snowpack. They are unlikely to be released now. The solar radiation will give rise as the day progresses to gradual softening of the snowpack on steep sunny slopes. At elevated altitudes snow depths vary greatly, depending on the infuence of the wind. Only a small amount of snow is lying for the time of year.

The tendency for Thursday 20 February 2025 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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