Overall impression
Snow condition
One of the five lowest days I have ever experienced.
Snow quality
First so blower that you floated into the valley without contact or a turn. Then slightly colder and so much rebound that you flew into the valley. All without turns.
Risks
It's rumbling and pumping from the high elevations. There is an unbound 1.5m layer in the area (I dug a snow profile in the 25 degree south-facing slope while searching for skis B)) which settled by the evening. Of course, I see terrain traps and steeper slopes as very critical. As soon as we were standing on slightly hilly terrain, it was booming in the morning. The settling at low altitudes was very noticeable over the course of the day. There were two warm fog clouds in which there was very brief sleet and everything stuck to the glasses. However, more is probably needed for a future weak layer.
Overall impression
Five for the snow alone. Rarely experienced like this. Two more when there was visibility.
