Update of the avalanche forecast for Saturday 29 November 2025.
Fresh wind slabs require caution.
all day it applies above 2200 meter moderate avalanche danger, so danger level two, below low avalanche danger, so danger level one.
all day, above 2200 meter, we have a wind slab problem. Especially in the aspects West to North to East.
The wind slabs of the last few days can be released by a single winter sport participant. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls in west to north to east facing aspects above approximately 2200 m. The wind slabs are clearly recognisable to the trained eye. Avalanches can in isolated cases reach medium size. Apart from the danger of being buried, restraint should be exercised as well in view of the danger of avalanches sweeping people along and giving rise to falls.
And now the snowpack:
From a snow sport perspective, in most cases insufficient snow is lying. The snowpack will be subject to considerable local variations. In the last few days the wind was moderate to strong. The fresh wind slabs are lying on top of a weakly bonded old snowpack especially on steep shady slopes.
We have the following danger patterns: dp.6: cold, loose snow and wind, dp.1: deep persistent weak layer.The tendency for Sunday 30 November 2025 indicates a steady avalanche danger.
Have a nice day and don't forget to be careful!
