Avalanche forecast for Monday 9 February 2026.

Weak layers in the old snowpack necessitate caution.

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

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

Avalanches can be released in the weakly bonded old snow by a single winter sport participant. This applies on west, north and east facing slopes especially above approximately 1800 m. In many cases avalanches are medium-sized. Remotely triggered avalanches are possible. The number and size of avalanche prone locations will increase with altitude. Whumpfing sounds and the formation of shooting cracks when stepping on the snowpack indicate the danger. Defensive route selection is important.

And now the snowpack:

The snowpack will be unstable above approximately 1800 m. Distinct weak layers exist in the old snowpack. This applies especially on west, north and east facing slopes. Below approximately 1600 m and steep sunny slopes: The weather conditions gave rise to moistening of the snowpack. Outgoing longwave radiation during the night will be reduced. The snowpack will become moist as the day progresses.

We have the following danger patterns: dp.1: deep persistent weak layer, dp.8: surface hoar blanketed with snow.

The tendency for Tuesday 10 February 2026 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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