Avalanche forecast for Monday 2 March 2026.
Weakly bonded old snow and wet snow require 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.
Avalanches can be released in the old snowpack and reach large size. This applies even in case of a single winter sport participant. The avalanche prone locations are to be found especially on west, north and east facing slopes above approximately 2000 m and in all aspects at elevated altitudes. Caution is to be exercised in particular at transitions from a shallow to a deep snowpack. Whumpfing sounds can indicate the danger. Remotely triggered avalanches are possible. In their paths avalanches can entrain the wet snow. This extends the avalanche runout distances.
And now the snowpack:
Shady slopes: Distinct weak layers exist in the old snowpack in particular on west, north and east facing slopes.
The tendency for Tuesday 3 March 2026 indicates a steady avalanche danger.
Have a nice day and don't forget to be careful!
