Chiemgau Alps on 26.02.2022

Snow condition

good compact base up to approx. 800 m, then from 1000 still good compact base. 5-10 cm fluffy sleet there, rising towards the top, in some pockets also 20 cm and more of fine pow, on a homogeneous base, very good for shooting.

Snow quality

a large part of the fresh snow is quick to ride sleet, the rest is the most beautiful six-jet flakes. in the wind-calmed over 1400 in places unbound and really extremely easy to atomize. further down then as a groovy layer on the supporting harsch, powder slope feeling.

relatively safe below the forest line. near the ridge above also drifting snow packs with cracking around the track, more of a crash issue... occasional gusty wind.

Overall impression

first lines on my favorite north slope, then second and third round, despite the little fresh snow with an incredible amount of sleet, mega descents
