Update of the avalanche forecast for Sunday 1 March 2026.

Weakly bonded old snow represents the main danger. Wet snow requires caution.

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

all day, above 2000 meter, we have a persistent weak layer problem. Especially in the aspects West to North to East. Furthermore, all day, below 2200 meter, we have a wet snow problem. Especially in the aspects East to South to West.

Distinct weak layers exist in the bottom section of the snowpack in particular above approximately 2000 m. Winter sport participants can release avalanches as before. These can penetrate deep layers and reach large size, especially on west, north and east facing slopes. Individual avalanche prone locations are to be found also on southeast, south and southwest facing slopes above approximately 2400 m. Caution is to be exercised in particular at transitions from a shallow to a deep snowpack, when entering gullies and bowls for example. Remotely triggered avalanches are possible. Outgoing longwave radiation during the night will be severely restricted over a wide area. Individual small and, in isolated cases, medium-sized wet loose snow avalanches are possible below approximately 2200 m. In addition gliding avalanches are possible. This applies especially on cut and grassy slopes below approximately 2400 m.

And now the snowpack:

Some snow will fall in some regions. The weather will be mild. The snowpack remains prone to triggering. Avalanche prone weak layers exist in the bottom section of the snowpack on west, north and east facing slopes. The surface of the snowpack will cool hardly at all during the overcast night and will already be soft in the early morning.

The tendency for Monday 2 March 2026 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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