Avalanche forecast for Sunday 8 February 2026.

A treacherous 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 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.

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 medium size. The avalanche prone locations are difficult to recognise. Whumpfing sounds and the formation of shooting cracks when stepping on the snowpack serve as an alarm indicating the danger. Remotely triggered avalanches are possible.

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. On steep sunny slopes the snowpack will only just freeze.

The tendency for Monday 9 February 2026 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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