Avalanche report for Monday 21 April 2025.

Wet snow represents the main danger.

all day it applies above 2800 meter low avalanche danger, so danger level one, below moderate avalanche danger, so danger level two.

all day, below 2800 meter, we have a wet snow problem. Especially in the aspects West to North to East.

Wet avalanches can as before 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 below approximately 2800 m. Avalanches can release the saturated snowpack and reach medium size. As a consequence of warming during the day there will be only a slight increase in the danger of wet avalanches. Individual gliding avalanches can also occur, caution is to be exercised in particular on very steep grassy slopes in the regions with a lot of snow.

And now the snowpack:

The surface of the snowpack will cool hardly at all during the overcast night and will already be soft in the early morning. The snowpack will be wet all the way through. This applies on shady slopes below approximately 2600 m, as well as on sunny slopes below approximately 3000 m. Sunshine and high temperatures will give rise as the day progresses to increasing softening of the snowpack below approximately 2800 m. On steep sunny slopes as well as at low and intermediate altitudes only a little snow is now lying.

The tendency for Tuesday 22 April 2025 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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