Avalanche forecast for Saturday 7 February 2026.
A precarious avalanche situation will persist. The snowpack remains prone to triggering.
all day it applies above the treeline considerable avalanche danger, so danger level three, below moderate avalanche danger, so danger level two.
all day, above the treeline, we have a persistent weak layer problem. Especially in the aspects West to North to East.
Furthermore, all day, below the treeline, we have a persistent weak layer problem. Especially in the aspects North-West to North to North-East.
Avalanches can as before be released easily. Wind slabs and weakly bonded old snow require caution, especially on steep west, north and east facing slopes above the tree line, as well as in areas close to the tree line. Avalanches can penetrate down to the ground and reach large size. The avalanche prone locations are difficult to recognise.
And now the snowpack:
The new snow and wind slabs of the last few days are lying on surface hoar in particular on wind-protected shady slopes. Distinct weak layers exist in the old snowpack. This applies in particular on west, north and east facing slopes above the tree line, as well as in areas close to the tree line. The snowpack will be moist at low altitude.
We have the following danger patterns: dp.1: deep persistent weak layer, dp.8: surface hoar blanketed with snow.The tendency for Sunday 8 February 2026 indicates a steady avalanche danger.
Have a nice day and don't forget to be careful!
