Overall impression
Snow condition
It was already described quite well yesterday by muruaneq. Another 15-20 cm were added overnight. From the starting point at 1600 meters, very good base for a lot of fun. 80% of the tour was in the north sector and the last 20% southwest exposed.
Snow quality
Everything above 2200 was really good, moderate in the forest. It was nice and cool and so we were able to enjoy both sun and fluffy snow in the upper area.
Risks
We walked a leisurely, relatively flat entry tour. We were able to see some larger slopes from the last few days and some sliding snow cracks. Today you could still see how poorly the fresh snow cover or drift snow is connected to the frozen base. Tomorrow should be a little more relaxed.
Overall impression
And once again I refer to the wise words of muruaneq: "If the weather opens up over the next few days, there will certainly be some tours possible."
Today it opened up and it was really good, especially above the tree line.
There are definitely some nice tours possible here over the next few days!
