Avalanche report for Thursday 20 February 2025.

A generally favourable avalanche situation will prevail.

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

The somewhat older wind slabs are in individual cases still prone to triggering on extremely steep shady slopes at elevated altitudes. Individual avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular adjacent to ridgelines and in pass areas. They are clearly recognisable to the trained eye. Restraint should be exercised because avalanches can sweep people along and give rise to falls. On extremely steep sunny slopes individual small wet loose snow slides are possible as a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation.

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. This also applies at low and intermediate altitudes in all aspects. Only a small amount of snow is lying for the time of year.

The tendency for Friday 21 February 2025 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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