Avalanche report for Thursday 20 March 2025.

As a consequence of warming during the day there will be a gradual increase in the danger of moist avalanches.

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

all day, above the treeline, we have a wet snow problem. This in all aspects.

As a consequence of warming during the day, the likelihood of natural moist avalanches being released will increase gradually. The more recent wind slabs are in some cases still prone to triggering. Caution is to be exercised in particular on very steep shady slopes adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls above approximately 1800 m. In isolated cases avalanches are medium-sized and can be released in some cases by a single winter sport participant. Backcountry touring and other off-piste activities call for experience in the assessment of avalanche danger and careful route selection.

And now the snowpack:

As a consequence of sharply rising temperatures and a treacherous avalanche situation will develop. The old snowpack is faceted and weak; its surface consists of loosely bonded snow. Precarious weak layers exist in the centre of the old snowpack in particular on little used shady slopes. Below the tree line a little snow is lying.

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

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