Update of the avalanche forecast for Sunday 8 February 2026.

The conditions are treacherous.

all day it applies above 1800 meter considerable avalanche danger, so danger level three, below moderate avalanche danger, so danger level two.

all day, above 1800 meter, we have a persistent weak layer problem. Especially in the aspects West to North to East. Furthermore, all day, below 1800 meter, we have a persistent weak layer problem. Especially in the aspects North-West to North to North-East.

Avalanches can be released in the old snowpack. Mostly these are medium-sized and can be released even by a single winter sport participant. Caution is to be exercised in particular on west, north and east facing slopes above approximately 1800 m. Remotely triggered avalanches are possible. The avalanche prone locations are and are barely recognisable. Whumpfing sounds and the formation of shooting cracks when stepping on the snowpack are a clear indication of a weakly bonded snowpack. Mostly small loose snow avalanches are possible as a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation.

And now the snowpack:

The new snow of the last few days is lying on top of a weakly bonded old snowpack in particular on west, north and east facing slopes above approximately 1800 m. Distinct weak layers exist in the old snowpack. Below approximately 1600 m: The snowpack is moist. Outgoing longwave radiation during the night will be good at times.

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

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