Snow condition

The northern traffic jam continues and there's still no sign of spring here, on the contrary it's still snowing. You can actually ride anything, off-road you can really step on the gas, forest is also very good but not too deep.

Snow quality

nice cold powder (north side) up to about 1500m, at lower altitudes you could feel the sunlight from yesterday, from 1200 it became noticeably heavier

the LLB issued a 3 for the altitude above 2000m, as the visibility was very limited at times, we only stayed up to the tree line. the snow cover made a homogeneous impression, no cracks or observations to be seen. however, caution is advised for Sunday, towards the afternoon it became quite windy, in combination with the resumption of snowfall, a lot is transported here.

Overall impression

the best day of the season for me too. everything was just right today, the temperature, the crew, the quality and the amount of fresh snow. There's still a lot to come here in the next few days, with the existing base there's definitely still some time to go
