Guter Schnee, viele Spalten.

Overall impression
Snow condition
About half a meter of autumn snow on the ice. The top 15cm still very fluffy, below that it has settled. Slopes ok, off-piste skiing only possible on the glacier (in contrast to the rest of the terrain), but not recommended because of the many crevasses.
Snow quality
Mostly very good but unusable because far too little. On steep south-facing slopes, sometimes a light cover.
Risks
Not too problematic, crevasses are the bigger problem. Small self-releases on very steep south-facing slopes.
Overall impression
Okay for October in the ski area, very nice weather. Some ski tourers heading towards Wildspitze. We were on the Taschachferner for measurements (=work) and were glad when we were back on the slopes.

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!
