Avalanche report for Saturday 22 March 2025.

Fresh wind slabs at elevated altitudes. Slight increase in danger of wet avalanches.

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

all day, we have a wet snow problem. Especially in the aspects East to South to West.

As a consequence of a sometimes strong southerly foehn wind, clearly visible wind slabs will form. These are mostly small and can only be released in isolated cases, caution is to be exercised in particular on very steep shady slopes at elevated altitudes. As a consequence of warming during the day, the likelihood of wet loose snow avalanches being released will increase. On very steep slopes individual small and, in isolated cases, medium-sized wet loose snow avalanches are possible from late morning. This applies in particular in the regions with a lot of snow.

And now the snowpack:

Steep shady slopes: The snowpack is largely stable; its surface consists of loosely bonded snow. This applies in particular above approximately 2200 m. The somewhat older wind slabs have bonded well with the old snowpack. Sunny slopes: As a consequence of mild temperatures and partly cloudy skies no crust will develop on the surface during the course of the night. Sunshine and high temperatures will give rise as the day progresses to increasing softening of the snowpack. Below the tree line only a little snow is now lying.

The tendency for Sunday 23 March 2025 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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