Avalanche forecast for Saturday 24 January 2026.

Wind slabs are to be avoided.

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.

Fresh and older wind slabs remain in some cases prone to triggering. These can be released in the weakly bonded old snow by a single winter sport participant. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on west to north to east facing aspects above approximately 2400 m and adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. Such avalanche prone locations are clearly recognisable to the trained eye. In very isolated cases avalanches are medium-sized. 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:

Some snow will fall. As a consequence of new snow and a moderate southerly wind, mostly small wind slabs will form. The wind slabs are prone to triggering. They are bonding only slowly with the old snowpack. The old snowpack consists of faceted crystals. The snowpack will be generally subject to considerable local variations. Steep sunny slopes: As a consequence of solar radiation a crust formed on the surface during the last few days. Only a small amount of snow is lying for the time of year in all altitude zones.

The tendency for Sunday 25 January 2026 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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