Update of the avalanche forecast for Sunday 8 February 2026.

Fresh wind slabs require caution.

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 wind slab problem. Especially in the aspects West to North to East.

The fresh wind slabs can be released by a single winter sport participant in some cases. This applies especially on steep shady slopes, as well as adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls above the tree line. 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:

The somewhat older wind slabs are lying on the unfavourable surface of an old snowpack at elevated altitudes. Faceted weak layers exist in the old snowpack. The snowpack will be moist below approximately 2200 m.

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

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