Update of the avalanche forecast for Saturday 31 January 2026.

Wind slabs and weakly bonded old snow represent the main danger.

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

all day, above the treeline, we have a persistent weak layer problem. Especially in the aspects West to North to East.

Fresh and somewhat older wind slabs are prone to triggering above the tree line. These are covered with new snow in some cases and therefore difficult to recognise. Avalanches can in some places be released, even by a single winter sport participant and reach medium size. Avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on steep west, north and east facing slopes above the tree line. Caution is to be exercised in particular in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain, as well as on wind-loaded slopes.

And now the snowpack:

The new snow and wind slabs are lying on top of a weakly bonded old snowpack. The old snowpack consists of faceted crystals.

We have the following danger patterns: dp.6: cold, loose snow and wind, dp.5: snowfall after a long period of cold.

The tendency for Sunday 1 February 2026 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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