There is still powder but you have been looking for a long time. But a real PowderGuide will always find snow that's good. So there was the right equipment for every activity. Whether couliflitzepow or popperpow for the forest and bremsepow to warm up your thighs or to wear them out.

Wind drifted snow

North North-West

Intensity: low

Risks

South-West West

Wind intensity: Medium (20 – 40 km/h)

Yesterday I was aware of some warning signs and refrained from the most beautiful of all culoirs, so today there was no new danger to be perceived except perhaps personal culoir performance.

Shooting up to the sauna and on and on as an altitude millionaire in the Culoir.

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!
