Avalanche forecast for Sunday 22 March 2026.

The fresh snow and the wind slabs must be evaluated with care and prudence in all aspects. Wind slabs and weakly bonded old snow require caution.

all day it applies above the treeline moderate avalanche danger, so danger level two, below low avalanche danger, so danger level one.

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

The fresh and older wind slabs must be evaluated with care and prudence in particular on northwest to north to northeast facing aspects above approximately 2000 m. Avalanches can in isolated cases be released in the old snowpack and reach medium size on very steep northwest, north and northeast facing slopes. As a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation small and, in isolated cases, medium-sized moist loose snow avalanches are possible.

And now the snowpack:

In some localities 10 to 15 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, will fall. The new snow will be deposited on the unfavourable surface of an old snowpack. As a consequence of a sometimes strong wind from variable directions, sometimes avalanche prone wind slabs formed in the last few days. The fresh and somewhat older wind slabs are lying on the unfavourable surface of an old snowpack. Distinct weak layers exist in the bottom section of the snowpack in particular on steep shady slopes. This applies especially above approximately 2000 m. Steep sunny slopes: Sunshine and high temperatures will give rise to moistening of the snowpack.

We have the following danger patterns: dp.6: cold, loose snow and wind, dp.1: deep persistent weak layer.

The tendency for Monday 23 March 2026 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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