Snow condition

Descents through the denser forest are no longer a problem at this altitude. So everything is absolutely sufficient for the tour. However, there is certainly still room for improvement and the snow conditions are not exceptional.

Snow quality

Nice powder snow 10cm on seeded powder and due to the not too low temperatures a bit gritty to ride but still great (but no blower power).

There were no signs of avalanches in the forest and hardly any wind up to 2000m in contrast to the previous snowfalls. No assessment possible further up due to poor visibility.

Overall impression

Nice tour in the Schmirntal will certainly remain good until it warms up. Below the tree line, where it is not yet snow-covered, in the northern sector you will certainly find the best snow at the moment. This is also best suited to the current avalanche situation. All in all, there will be 10-20cm of fresh snow on the old snow cover in the Brenner region by tomorrow. However, careful route-walking is still necessary above the tree line.
