Snow quality

3 von 5 Sterne
Hard, pressed snow
Powder snow
Wind drifted snow

A lot of wind blows everything somewhere. I've been searching for half a day now, but the drifting snow fields are not so good to ride. The blown-in field below the summit is good. It's actually best just above the trees.

Overall impression

Equal

The wind gives the forest a nice extra pack and ensures free refills in the off-piste terrain and also blows away all the trial freeriders and day tourists. On the other hand, the slopes are now quite nice with 30cm of powder.

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!
