Snow quality

Above approx. 2,700 everything was heavily destroyed by the wind and partly blown off except for a hard layer on the ground. Where there is protection from the wind below approx. 2,700, a mix of everything, but still powdery in places. Mostly hard but nice and grippy, no broken snow, therefore quite passable to ski. There was no firn today due to the clouds.

Drift snow everywhere, of course, but seems to have settled well due to the warm temperatures. Older sliding snow avalanches on south-facing slopes

Overall impression

Dank schönem Wetter und angenehmen Temperaturen toller Tag am Piz Turba. Schneetechnisch nicht viel zu holen rund um den Julierpass - der Wind hat gewütet. Das positive: Schneeoberfläche ist großteils hart, schön griffig und ganz gut zu fahren.
