Avalanche forecast for Wednesday 31 December 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 North-West to North to East.

Sometimes avalanche prone wind slabs will form. These can be released in particular on steep shady slopes above approximately 2200 m. Caution is to be exercised adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. The number and size of avalanche prone locations will increase with altitude. Avalanches can additionally be released in the weakly bonded old snow in very isolated cases. 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:

The wind will be strong to storm force. As a consequence of low temperatures and the occasionally storm force northwesterly wind, the snow drift accumulations will increase in size. The fresh and older wind slabs are lying on soft layers in particular on shady slopes at elevated altitudes. Shady slopes above approximately 2600 m: Faceted weak layers exist in the bottom section of the snowpack. The snowpack will be generally subject to considerable local variations. A little snow is lying in all altitude zones. Steep south facing slopes: Hardly any snow is lying.

The tendency for Thursday 1 January 2026 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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