Of course, at this time of year, you have to put up with a long hike. But there was still plenty of snow at the top. Only directly at the summit (south side) it was already snowy and at the entrance to the Kistenkar it is also getting scarce.

Worse

Another ski tour with only a 10-minute approach, but with a carrying route. From 1200m you can switch to skis. The weather was a little worse than expected. The clouds only cleared late. On the other hand, the descent was well timed. Beautiful firn at 11 o'clock. However, the entrance to the Kistenkar has only a little snow left, so from tomorrow you will certainly have to carry your skis down a few meters, because the snow patches between the rocks are no longer sufficient. I forced it today with skis and can now straighten my edges again. All in all, it was worth it again.

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!
