Overall impression
Snow condition
As the tour progressed, we noticed that the snow cover was settling. This again significantly reduces the number of ground contacts.
Snow quality
Despite the settling, the powder was once again amazing! The sinking depths were no longer as extreme as yesterday. Nevertheless, there were still one or two face shots. Tomorrow, however, the quality will almost certainly be significantly worse.
Risks
Today you could at least see some high alpine terrain. The wind tracks are gigantic. Wind-exposed flanks are almost completely blown off. We were able to recognize a self-triggered descent in high alpine terrain (opposite). On the lee side with a steepness of around 30°-35° with medium to large dimensions! In the forest we could recognize some small loose snow avalanches. Much less sluff today due to the settling.
Overall impression
Super start to the new year! We can continue like this.
