Snow condition

2 von 5 Sterne

Snow quality

1 von 5 Sterne

Overall impression

2 von 5 Sterne

Altitude

1800 - 2700m

Avalanche warning level

considerable (3)

Exposition

North East South West

Snow condition

2 von 5 Sterne
Blown backs
Stone Contact avoidable
Variations of snow cover

If your skis are not too bad and you know the terrain a bit, I think some defensive variants/tours are possible. But whether it's worth it is up to you.

Snow quality

2 von 5 Sterne
Hard, pressed snow
Breakable crust

Most of it looks like powder and breakage. It didn't look worthwhile anywhere, the strong winds of the last few days have ruined things. But the slopes are great.

Risks

Old snow problem
Crevasse or fall danger
Fresh avalanches
North South

Wind intensity: High (40 – 60 km/h)

LLB applies. A few boards came off from yesterday to today, some even in flat terrain. Actually all at the transition from much too little snow (-> old snow and drift snow). I would be very careful where the drift snow lenses are. The boards might not have been enough for a proper burial, but I don't think it would be very cool to be dragged over rocks in such poor snow conditions...

Avalanche activity

3 South-East

Dry slab avalanche (unknown)

Altitude: 2600 m

Expositionen SO-S-W was dem LLB etwas wiederspricht. MM nach alle Expos kritisch beurteilen.

Overall impression

2 von 5 Sterne

It's still nice when the piste is good and there's practically nothing going on.
