Update of the avalanche report for Monday 31 March 2025.

Wind slabs and weakly bonded old snow require caution.

all day it applies above 2200 meter moderate avalanche danger, so danger level two, below low avalanche danger, so danger level one.

all day, above 2200 meter, we have a wind slab problem. This in all aspects. Furthermore, all day, above 2200 meter, we have a persistent weak layer problem. Especially in the aspects West to North to East.

As a consequence of new snow and a storm force wind from northerly directions, avalanche prone wind slabs will form on Monday especially adjacent to ridgelines. The fresh wind slabs can in some places be released by a single winter sport participant. Caution is to be exercised in particular on steep slopes above approximately 2200 m. Avalanches can in some cases reach medium size. Restraint should be exercised because avalanches can sweep people along and give rise to falls. Weak layers in the old snowpack can be released in isolated cases by individual winter sport participants. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on steep, little used shady slopes above approximately 2200 m and on steep, little used west and east facing slopes above approximately 2600 m. Mostly avalanches are medium-sized. In isolated cases avalanches can also release deeper layers of the snowpack.

And now the snowpack:

In some regions up to 20 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, will fall. The wind will be strong to storm force. The new snow and wind slabs will be deposited on soft layers in particular on steep shady slopes above approximately 2200 m. Avalanche prone weak layers exist in the old snowpack especially on little used west, north and east facing slopes. This applies in particular above approximately 2200 m.

The tendency for Tuesday 1 April 2025 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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