Update of the avalanche report for Sunday 27 April 2025.

Wet snow requires caution. Wind slabs in the high Alpine regions.

all day it applies above 2600 meter low avalanche danger, so danger level one, below moderate avalanche danger, so danger level two.

all day, below 2600 meter, we have a wet snow problem. Especially in the aspects West to North to East. Furthermore, all day, above 2600 meter, we have a wind slab problem. Especially in the aspects North-West to North to North-East.

The danger of wet avalanches will already exist in the early morning, in the event of solar radiation especially. In the afternoon the activity of wet avalanches will increase. In the event of rain this applies in particular. Mostly avalanches are only small. The avalanche prone locations are to be found especially on very steep west, north and east facing slopes below approximately 2600 m. Fresh wind slabs can be released in isolated cases in particular on very steep shady slopes in high Alpine regions. Such avalanche prone locations are to be found especially adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. Mostly avalanches are only small. The Avalanche Warning Service currently has only a small amount of information that has been collected in the field, so that the avalanche danger should be investigated especially thoroughly in the relevant locality.

And now the snowpack:

The weather conditions fostered a stabilisation of the snow drift accumulations. In some regions a partly clear night. The surface of the snowpack will only just freeze and will soften quickly. The old snowpack is wet. This applies on shady slopes below approximately 2600 m, as well as on sunny slopes below approximately 3000 m. Up to 2400 m and above rain will fall in the afternoon in some localities.

The tendency for Monday 28 April 2025 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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