Avalanche forecast for Wednesday 11 February 2026.

The snowpack remains prone to triggering. Fresh wind slabs require caution.

all day it applies above 2000 meter considerable avalanche danger, so danger level three, below low avalanche danger, so danger level one.

all day, above 2000 meter, we have a persistent weak layer problem. Especially in the aspects West to North to East. Furthermore, all day, above the treeline, we have a wind slab problem. Especially in the aspects North-West to North to East.

Avalanches can as before be released easily. Mostly they are medium-sized. Caution is to be exercised in particular on steep west, north and east facing slopes above approximately 2000 m. The avalanche prone locations are barely recognisable, even to the trained eye. Whumpfing sounds and the formation of shooting cracks when stepping on the snowpack can indicate the danger. Remotely triggered avalanches are possible in isolated cases. As a consequence of the occasionally strong wind, fresh snow drift accumulations will form on Wednesday. These are in some cases prone to triggering in particular on northwest to north to east facing aspects.

And now the snowpack:

Some snow will fall in some regions. The wind will be strong over a wide area. The fresh wind slabs will be deposited on surface hoar in some places above the tree line. This applies in particular on northwest, north and east facing slopes. Distinct weak layers exist in the old snowpack. This applies in particular on west, north and east facing slopes above approximately 2000 m. Below approximately 2000 m as well as steep sunny slopes: The snowpack is fairly homogeneous and its surface has a crust that is barely capable of bearing a load.

The tendency for Thursday 12 February 2026 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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