Snow condition

Only from the end of the forest at 1500 meters there is continuous snow cover and even there it is quite thin. Below 1500 meters there is snow outside the forest, but only about 20-30cm.

Snow quality

Very changeable between rain crust and 5cm of powder on a breaking or non-breaking snow cover. Individual turns quite good, but overall not a pleasure.

Have released a board at a good 1500 meters in a forest aisle in a good 35 steep terrain, has slipped directly on the bushes below. Will now only become more unstable with the rain...

Overall impression

Still some sun and beautiful scenery :-) But the snow situation is really surprisingly thin and the quality is, as expected, really bad at the moment, even at almost 2000 meters. The rain and warm temperatures over the next few days will severely limit the possibilities for the time being...
