Current Forecast
Natural avalanches are unlikely, human-triggered avalanches are possible. Small avalanches in specific areas, or large avalanches in isolated areas.
The main problem right now is daytime heat loosening the surface snow. To avoid this danger, start your tour early and avoid steep sunny slopes when they start to heat up. Watch for signs of surface instability, like roller-balls, small loose slides, or the snow becoming unsupportive to boots and skis. Also keep in mind the older weaks layers in the snow which are mosly found on shady areas and / or higher elevations.

About
This project is run by Zvavi Saqartvelo - Avalanche Georgia, a registered non-profit NGO, which has started an avalanche forecasting service in the Republic of Georgia. We provide free, high-quality information and warnings about avalanche conditions in the Gudauri area, which is a popular location for off-piste and backcountry freeriding and ski touring. We heavily rely on the contributions of volunteers and donors, and welcome anyone who is interested to help further the project. You can contact us via email zvavisaqartvelo@gmail.com or Facebook.

Our avalanche forecasters are internationally qualified and experienced professionals, and data is provided by skilled observers. We encourage you to make your own observations and decisions, without relying solely on our forecast, since any forecast is a generalised 'best guess', and in certain cases it might be inaccurate. We can not be held liable for any actions you take in the backcountry that may result in injury, loss or death.
