Avalanche forecast for Friday 26 December 2025.
Wind slabs and weakly bonded old snow require caution.
all day it applies low avalanche danger, so danger level one.
all day, above 2600 meter, we have a persistent weak layer problem. Especially in the aspects North-West to North to North-East.
The no longer entirely fresh wind slabs of Wednesday are in some cases prone to triggering in particular on steep shady slopes. Caution is to be exercised adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls at elevated altitudes. In isolated cases avalanches can be triggered in the weakly bonded old snow. Such avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on extremely steep shady slopes above approximately 2600 m. Mostly avalanches are small. Apart from the danger of being buried, restraint should be exercised in particular in view of the danger of avalanches sweeping people along and giving rise to falls.
And now the snowpack:
On Wednesday rather small wind slabs formed in some cases. Shady slopes above approximately 2600 m: Faceted weak layers exist in the bottom section of the snowpack. Below approximately 2600 m: The snowpack is largely stable. Hardly any snow is lying on south facing slopes. The snowpack will be generally subject to considerable local variations. Less snow than usual is lying in all altitude zones.
We have the following danger patterns: dp.1: deep persistent weak layer.
The tendency for Saturday 27 December 2025 indicates a steady avalanche danger.
