Snow report Central Switzerland, 01/15/2014
Der "Stoos" als perfektes Ausweichziel. Geplant war ein Powdertag auf dem Titlis in Engelberg. Als wir jedoch auf Facebook das angehängte Bild (Nr. 1 - Einstieg in die Laubabfahrt - braucht wohl keine näheren Erklärungen) sahen, fiel unsere Entscheidung z
Central Switzerland

Snow condition
On Tuesday, January 14, around 30 centimetres of good quality fresh snow fell in Central Switzerland. Enough to prevent contact with the hard old snow cover on the slopes. Only the ridges and backs were free of snow due to the wind.
Snow quality
Good snow quality. Due to the sun on Wednesday and the foehn on Thursday, the snow has become a little heavy, but is still of good quality.
Risks
The avalanche situation is tense. SLF reports level 3 and we have triggered two small snow slabs ourselves. Occasionally, snow slabs of a manageable size have also come loose spontaneously. The strong Föhn wind brought a lot of snow yesterday. In central Switzerland, caution is advised over the next few days, especially in gullies and hollows.
Overall impression
The first great powder day of the season. We skied first lines all day and actually had the area all to ourselves for the whole day. It can go on like this.

The ConditionsReports are user-generated content - from freeriders for freeriders! Recently, a distinction has been made between MiniReport, which offers a quick status report with location, image/video and text, and ProReport, which requires more detailed information and can be uploaded by advanced users.
Every registered user can enter the MiniReport in the WebApp, iOS app or Android app. If you would also like to upload ProReports, please write to us at conditionsreporter@powderguide.com so that we can activate it for you and briefly explain it to you!
