Variations of snow cover

The summery temperatures last week really put a strain on the general snow situation. On the sunny side, the situation no longer looks inviting. You should keep a very close eye on terrain traps (streams etc.). The fresh snow is often covering up empty spots (e.g. sun-exposed paths). At 1100 m there was around 15 cm of fresh snow. Slightly increasing upwards to 20 cm+.

Powder snow
Wind drifted snow

The quality was good and the fresh snow was easy to ski. Fortunately, the amount of drift snow was limited. The only thing that spoiled the downhill fun a little was the blow-through on the hard old snow cover. However, it was possible to reduce the blow-through by choosing the route carefully.

This is how you imagine a day of touring: Alarm clock, check the measuring station and shortly afterwards the track work starts. Many thanks to the tracker from the second part of the ascent ;).

Note on Conditions Reports

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!
If you need help with the operation or have suggestions for improvement, please write to us at app@powderguide.com!
