Overall impression
Snow condition
You can no longer ski down into the valley, but if you start high enough, you can still do it. Above 1200-1400m (open area - forest) you should be on the shaded side, but in the lower areas you have to be careful of the freshly snow-covered stones, etc. Today up to 15cm were added in the higher areas, enough to cover the old tracks.
Snow quality
Really good. At lower altitudes, the fresh snow is relatively damp (stollt like crazy!) and unfortunately a bit slow to ride, but nice to ride when it's steep. From around 1500-1600m, the fresh snow becomes drier and really fine. The layer of old snow only gets in the way when older avalanche boulders are lying around. It's not really deep, of course, but it was nice.
Risks
In the forest, the fresh snow lies on a very compact layer of old snow and is well bonded. further up there was a little wind, but not yet problematic, everything is unbound. in the steep terrain there is quite a lot of sluff, you should pay attention.
Overall impression
Surely a bit subjective, but a really good day. At first I didn't even know if I'd be able to go out at all and was expecting a water fight and carrying skis. One of the better days of the season for me, just not enough snow.
