Exposition
Snow condition
Very good for mid-December. A lot is possible. In the Bregenzerwald there is much more. Streams are open, descents were possible down into the valley.
Snow quality
It has slowed down a lot since Friday but is still brutally good. Especially north, some of the finest knee-deep powder. Very little wind, in sheltered slopes 5*
Wind drifted snow
Intensity: strong
Altitude: 1800 m – 4800 m
Risks
Wind intensity: No Wind (0 km/h)
We were on the mountain every day on Wednesday. We were able to follow the build-up of drift snow very well. Also the critical amounts of fresh snow. That's why we're not in the Bregenzerwald, where a lot of snow had already fallen on Friday. The drift snow is clearly visible. Sliding snow is clearly visible. Fresh snow was everywhere. The risk was easy to manage.
Avalanche activity
Dry slab avalanche (small)
Altitude: 2200 m
Nordhang, Abriss ca. 1m. Sehr eindrücklich und in einer bekannten Geländefalle. etliche sind dennoch rechts und links in den Hang eingefahren.
Overall impression
one for the books. 4 days, felt like 15000tm of untracked terrain. Impressive for us, we skied EVERYTHING. Sad result, origin was in many cases abroad. It felt like everyone had been on powder for 2 years, there was no stopping them.
