Update of the avalanche forecast for Monday 1 December 2025.

Wind slabs require caution. Weakly bonded old snow at elevated altitudes.

all day it applies above 2400 meter moderate avalanche danger, so danger level two, below low avalanche danger, so danger level one.

all day, above 2400 meter, we have a wind slab problem. Especially in the aspects West to North to East. Furthermore, all day, above 2400 meter, we have a persistent weak layer problem. Especially in the aspects West to North to East.

The wind slabs of last week can be released by a single winter sport participant in isolated cases especially on very steep west, north and east facing slopes. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain above approximately 2400 m. Avalanches can 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. In isolated cases avalanches can also be released in near-ground layers, in particular on very steep shady slopes at elevated altitudes. Steep, glaciated terrain must also be critically assessed. 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:

A little snow is lying. The snowpack will be subject to considerable local variations. The somewhat older wind slabs are lying on top of a weakly bonded old snowpack on west, north and east facing slopes at elevated altitudes. Faceted weak layers exist in the bottom section of the old snowpack in shady places that are protected from the wind. The high temperatures gave rise to moistening of the snowpack at intermediate altitudes.

We have the following danger patterns: dp.1: deep persistent weak layer, dp.6: cold, loose snow and wind.

The tendency for Tuesday 2 December 2025 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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