Hard, pressed snow
Wet snow
Slush
Firn
Jelly snow

If you want soft snow, you get endless depth. Old drift snow fields in the northern sector are just fine.

Risks

No warning signs

Wind intensity: No Wind (0 km/h)

If it hadn't been such interspersed terrain, I would only be much more worried in wet snow slides. It's pretty heavy stuff.

Overall impression

Better

Phew, shoes still don't fit and the pain is hard to drink away. Flat light and a wheat hangover round off the day. But it's definitely getting better.

Note on Conditions Reports

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!

Thank you for your contribution to the PowderGuide project!
