Update of the avalanche report for Sunday 20 April 2025.

Increase in danger of wet and gliding avalanches as a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation.

earlier in the day it applies low avalanche danger, so danger level one. later in the day it applies moderate avalanche danger, so danger level two.

later in the day, we have a wet snow problem. Especially in the aspects West to North to East. Furthermore, later in the day, we have a gliding snow problem. Especially in the aspects West to North to East.

Wet avalanches can in some cases be released by a single winter sport participant. The avalanche prone locations are to be found especially on very steep west, north and east facing slopes at high altitude. Avalanches can release the saturated snowpack and reach medium size in isolated cases. Individual gliding avalanches can also occur. Such avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on very steep grassy slopes. Areas with glide cracks are to be avoided as far as possible.

And now the snowpack:

The snowpack will be wet all the way through. This applies on shady slopes below approximately 2400 m, as well as on sunny slopes in all altitude zones. On steep sunny slopes as well as at low and intermediate altitudes only a little snow is now lying.

The tendency for Monday 21 April 2025 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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