Avalanche forecast for Sunday 11 January 2026.

Weakly bonded old snow represents the main danger.

all day it applies above the treeline considerable avalanche danger, so danger level three, below low avalanche danger, so danger level one.

all day, above the treeline, we have a persistent weak layer problem. This in all aspects.

Weak layers in the upper part of the snowpack can be released over a wide area easily by individual winter sport participants. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in all aspects above the tree line. Such avalanche prone locations are numerous but are difficult to recognise. Mostly avalanches are medium-sized. In the regions neighbouring those that are subject to danger level 4 (high) the avalanche prone locations are more prevalent and larger. Whumpfing sounds and the formation of shooting cracks when stepping on the snowpack and fresh avalanches serve as an alarm indicating the danger. Caution and restraint are required.

And now the snowpack:

Up to 15 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, will fall. The wind will be strong at times. The old snowpack is faceted. Over a wide area new snow and wind slabs are lying on a weakly bonded old snowpack. The various wind slabs have bonded poorly with each other and the old snowpack.

The tendency for Monday 12 January 2026 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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