Avalanche report for Friday 4 April 2025.

The danger of moist and wet avalanches will increase during the day.

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

Small and medium-sized wet and gliding avalanches are possible as a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation. As a consequence of the solar radiation, the likelihood of avalanches being released will increase gradually in particular on steep grassy slopes in all altitude zones. Restraint should be exercised because avalanches can sweep people along and give rise to falls. The wind slabs of the last few days have bonded quite well with the old snowpack. These can in very isolated cases be released by people. Avalanches can in very isolated cases reach medium size. Weak layers in the old snowpack can be released in some places in particular on steep shady slopes. These avalanche prone locations are rather rare and are difficult to recognise. 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.

And now the snowpack:

The wind slabs of the last few days have bonded quite well with the old snowpack. Outgoing longwave radiation during the night was good. The surface of the snowpack has frozen to form a strong crust will soften earlier than the day before. Individual weak layers exist in the old snowpack especially on steep shady slopes. The snowpack will be generally subject to considerable local variations. Below the tree line a little snow is lying.

We have the following danger patterns: dp.10: springtime scenario, dp.2: gliding snow.

The tendency for Saturday 5 April 2025 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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