Dream powder around Lindauer Hütte, 08.01.2022 | hippski

Snow condition

Very good snow conditions in the Lindauer Hütte touring area, all tours possible. With the fresh snow and the forecast of fresh snow tomorrow, a very good basis for the rest of the winter. Descent to Latschau on toboggan run possible. Fresh snow lies on hard, crusty old snow. Below approx. 2,000 m you can still get through this hard layer. A little more snow is needed to cover the mountain pines and, especially in higher areas, to cover all the rocks.

Snow quality

Overnight 10 cm, above approx. 2,000 m 20 cm of very loose and cold fresh snow, mostly without wind

Fresh snow fell without wind up to approx. 2,300 m. Close to the ridge and on higher peaks, however, wind vanes and fresh drifts. These fresh drift snow deposits should be assessed with caution. Otherwise stable conditions with fresh snow on a hard old snow surface

Overall impression

Nahezu perfekte Tourenbedingungen rund um die Lindauer Hütte. Genialer kälter Neuschnee auf harter Alteschneedecke.
