Avalanche report for Wednesday 2 April 2025.
Low avalanche danger will prevail.
all day it applies low avalanche danger, so danger level one.
As a consequence of a sometimes strong wind from northerly directions, wind slabs formed especially adjacent to ridgelines. These can in some places be released by a single winter sport participant. Caution is to be exercised in particular adjacent to ridgelines above approximately 1900 m. Avalanches can also reach medium size. Weak layers in the old snowpack can be released in some places in particular on steep shady slopes. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on steep, little used shady slopes above approximately 1900 m. In isolated cases avalanches can also release deeper layers of the snowpack and reach medium size. The surface of the snowpack will freeze, but a strong crust will not form and will soften during the day. Small and medium-sized wet and gliding avalanches are possible as the moisture increases. This applies in particular on steep slopes above the tree line. Restraint should be exercised because avalanches can sweep people along and give rise to falls.
And now the snowpack:
Individual weak layers exist in the old snowpack especially on steep shady slopes. The surface of the snowpack will freeze to form a strong crust only at high altitudes and will soften during the day. The snowpack will be generally subject to considerable local variations. Below the tree line a little snow is lying.
The tendency for Thursday 3 April 2025 indicates a steady avalanche danger.
