Snow condition
The snow conditions must be assessed locally. Here in the central Bregenzerwald and on the west side, the snow starts at approx. 1000m and from 1100m you can start walking in open areas and from approx. 1300m you can also walk in the forest. The tour ends at 1900m. In this area, the snow cover is very homogeneous. Above that, the wind has blown everything away. Many streams and other terrain obstacles are still open and sometimes make the ascent or descent more difficult.
Snow quality
Finer set powder! The top 5 cm are fluffy with various soft layers underneath. But perfect for skiing. From midday onwards, the snow became noticeably heavier on the south side. We mainly skied on the west side.
Risks
The last few centimeters have fallen without the influence of wind. Drift snow packs are difficult to recognize. A few old small cracks are visible, but we didn't notice anything new during the tour. The LLB has issued level 2 for this altitude.
Overall impression
Nice little tour. With the fresh snow, it can only get better. A meter of snow and cold temperatures are still missing for proper tours at this altitude.
