Avalanche forecast for Wednesday 3 December 2025.

Fresh wind slabs represent the main danger.

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 fresh wind slabs can be released in isolated cases on very steep west, north and east facing slopes above approximately 2200 m. Such avalanche prone locations are to be found in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. In the regions exposed to the foehn wind these avalanche prone locations are more prevalent and larger. Avalanches can reach medium size especially in these regions. The clearly visible wind slabs are to be avoided. On steep grassy slopes individual gliding avalanches are possible, but they will be mostly small. This applies on sunny slopes below approximately 2400 m.

And now the snowpack:

As a consequence of a moderate to strong southerly foehn wind, mostly shallow wind slabs formed since Monday in gullies and bowls and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. The fresh wind slabs are lying on soft layers on west, north and east facing slopes. In some places wind slabs are lying on surface hoar. Isolated avalanche prone weak layers exist in the bottom section of the snowpack on shady slopes. This applies in particular in places that are protected from the wind at elevated altitudes.

We have the following danger patterns: dp.6: cold, loose snow and wind, dp.2: gliding snow.

The tendency for Thursday 4 December 2025 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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