The new snow and wind slabs represent the main danger. Outside marked and open pistes a very precarious avalanche situation will be encountered over a wide area. The sometimes storm force wind has transported a lot of snow. Above the tree line avalanche prone wind slabs formed, especially adjacent to ridgelines and in pass areas in all altitude zones, as well as in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain at elevated altitudes. On very steep sunny slopes medium-sized natural avalanches must be expected. In some places the avalanches can penetrate down to the ground and reach large size. Mostly the dry avalanches are medium-sized and can be released by a single winter sport participant. Remotely triggered avalanches are possible. Whumpfing sounds and the formation of shooting cracks when stepping on the snowpack serve as an alarm indicating the danger. The avalanche prone locations are prevalent and are barely recognisable, even to the trained eye. Backcountry touring calls for meticulous route selection. Over a wide area over a wide area 20 to 40 cm of snow, and up to 50 cm in some localities, has fallen since Thursday. The new snow and wind slabs are lying on top of a weakly bonded old snowpack in particular on steep shady slopes above the tree line. Distinct weak layers exist in the bottom section of the old snowpack. The meteorological conditions will foster a gradual weakening of the snowpack on sunny slopes. The snowpack remains unstable over a wide area, especially adjacent to ridgelines and in pass areas in all altitude zones, as well as in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain at elevated altitudes. The snowpack remains prone to triggering over a wide area. The avalanche danger will persist. steady 2026-02-22T16:00:00Z 2026-02-23T16:00:00Z 2026-02-22 DP6 DP1 2026-02-21T16:00:00Z 2026-02-21T16:00:00Z 2026-02-22T16:00:00Z false Sarntal Alps South Lüsner Mountains Nonsberger Alps East Dolomites of Fiemme North Cembra Valley Bondone and Stivo low treeline all_day considerable treeline all_day persistent_weak_layers treeline N W NW E NE all_day very_poor some 2 slab wind_slab treeline N W NW E NE all_day very_poor some 2 slab wet_snow 1800 SE N W SW NW E NE S all_day very_poor few 1 loose Fresh wind slabs are to be evaluated critically. Weak layers in the old snowpack can be released in isolated cases. Weak layers in the old snowpack can be released in isolated cases by individual winter sport participants especially in little used terrain. Caution is to be exercised in particular on steep west, north and east facing slopes above the tree line. The avalanche prone locations are difficult to recognise. Mostly avalanches are medium-sized. In addition the wind slabs in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain are prone to triggering in some cases still. Such avalanche prone locations are to be found on north, east and southeast facing slopes above the tree line. Restraint is advisable. Some snow fell on Saturday. The wind will be strong to storm force in some localities. The sometimes storm force wind will transport the new snow. Sometimes avalanche prone wind slabs will form. The snowpack will be in some cases prone to triggering. The new snow and wind slabs are lying on top of a weakly bonded old snowpack. This applies in particular on west, north and east facing slopes above the tree line. The weather conditions as the day progresses will give rise to moistening of the snowpack. Weak layers in the old snowpack represent the main danger. steady 2026-02-22T16:00:00Z 2026-02-23T16:00:00Z 2026-02-22 DP1 DP8
