Overall impression
Snow condition
Despite thawing weather with plus temperatures up to 2000 meters, still enough snow down to the valley. 50 cm valley on the mountain well over 100 cm. The foehn wind raged in the ridges, some of which are now free of snow
Snow quality
The warm weather clearly affected the quality of the snow. Above 1600 meters, partly wind-pressed powder. Cardboard snow deluxe underneath.
Risks
Not quite as tricky as after the weekend. But still tense conditions above the tree line. Clear foehn winds caused snow drifts in addition to the drift snow deposits.
Overall impression
So it wasn't completely bad as expected - above 1600 meters there were still a few powdery slopes Weather with spring-like temperatures also ok again, but a strong foehn wind on the peaks.
