Exposition
Snow condition
At the moment it's not worth going any further down than the valley station of the 3-seater Stützen lift. As it's not running, you need skins to get back up to the Seegrube. We made the last descent into the valley, you can forget the 2-person descent, but you can still get quite far down the 3-person. From Umbrüggler Alm onwards, however, it's better to ski with the handbrake on for quite a while. I don't understand why so many people have descended into the valley, even several times, it's really not worth it and can only be done with serious material damage...
Snow quality
Risks
Wind intensity: Medium (20 – 40 km/h)
Large amounts of fresh snow, with wind influence at the top. Above, a little east of the eastern slope, a medium-sized snow slab has been blown up. Watch out for drift snow in the next few days, this is definitely prone to disruption.
Overall impression
Very nice afternoon on the Nordkette, with a bit of skinning you get to nice runs in fantastic snow.

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!
