Update of the avalanche report for Saturday 14 December 2024.

On shady slopes isolated danger zones due to weak layers in old snow. Evaluate fresh snowdrifts with caution.

all day it applies above 2400 meter considerable avalanche danger, so danger level three, below low avalanche danger, so danger level one.

all day, above 2400 meter, we have a wind slab problem. Especially in the aspects North-West to North to North-East. Furthermore, all day, above 2400 meter, we have a persistent weak layer problem. Especially in the aspects West to North to East.

On shady slopes isolated danger zones due to weak layers in old snow. Evaluate fresh snowdrifts with caution.

And now the snowpack:

At high and high alpine altitudes, fresh and older snowdrift accumulations have been deposited on the surfaces atop loosely-packed layers of older snow or atop surface hoar, both of which are prone to triggering. Beneath these layers, the snow which has persisted since September and November as fundament is weakened by layers of faceted crystals. The snow is distributed highly irregularly: ridges are often totally windblown, but elsewhere the fresh fallen snow also doesn’t cover the base.

The tendency for Sunday 15 December 2024 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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