In winter, the avalanche bulletin consists of an interactive map, including danger descriptions and a section headed "Snowpack and weather". In low season the avalanche bulletin appears in plain text format in the event of heavy snowfall.

Interactive avalanche bulletin

The internet and smartphone versions of the interactive avalanche bulletin consist of two parts:

Hazard map, including danger description:

The danger description is given directly on the zoomable hazard map. As users move their mouse over the hazard map, the individual regions are highlighted. Clicking the map opens a window containing the relevant danger description. The hazard map and danger descriptions are issued at 5 pm and, depending on the avalanche situation during the winter, updated at 8 am (see “Publication times and validity”).

Hazard map showing a highlighted region and the applicable danger description: For each danger, one or more avalanche problems are indicated, in this case for example "New snow" and "Old snow".
 

Snowpack and weather

The description of the snowpack, weather and outlook for the following days is only updated in the evening.

The "Snowpack and weather" section is published in German at 5 pm and in the other languages by 6 pm at the latest.
