Snow quality
Overall impression
Altitude
1600 - 2900m
Avalanche warning level
moderate (2)
Exposition
Snow condition
Bad, the choice of route is very limited. Stone contact is always to be expected. Only in hollows could you ride reasonably quickly
Snow quality
Very variable, but with a good study of the terrain you can usually find powder
Wind drifted snow
Intensity: medium
Altitude: 1600 m – 2900 m
Risks
Wind intensity: Low (< 20 km/h)
Terrain traps, stones and undergrowth are the main hazards, as our tours were mostly on good-natured terrain. In sheltered locations (north, shady), the base consists of sugar snow, which you occasionally break through onto. Avalanche activity could not be observed.
Overall impression
Arrived with little hope and was pleasantly surprised. The snow conditions are poor, but with a good study of the maps and terrain, you can find good runs with mostly powder. The motto is always: Stay light on your feet. The weather was good and not very busy. It was a great 3 days of touring. Next time hopefully with more 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!
If you need help with the operation or have suggestions for improvement, please write to us at app@powderguide.com!
