Monte Rosa / Zermatt
Snow condition
Snow quality
Overall impression
Snow condition
OK for the area. Not really lush, but the place is generally not exactly a snow hole. Unfortunately, the wind has been working hard since the last snowfall, so the ridge and ridges are quite blown off.
Snow quality
Mixed bag: on steep, sunny slopes you can already find firn and on the flatter slopes it's unfortunately quite harsh. On the north side you can still find some nice powder. Unfortunately, the wind has destroyed a lot in the last few days.
Risks
Quite typical spring conditions with increasing avalanche danger as the day progresses. The southerly wind has created a few snow packs that should be avoided. Unfortunately, there are still a few landmines due to the poor snow build-up from the start of the season.
Overall impression
Good day in the mountains. It could have been better without the wind of the last few days.
