Everything was there today. In the morning it unfortunately rained up to about 1800 meters. Above 2000 the north-facing slopes are nice and powdery. South-facing slopes are quite difficult right up to the top. The descent was no fun at the bottom due to the rain and the heat.

Risks

Abort the tour
Diurnal warming
Much water in the snow cover

Wind intensity: Medium (20 – 40 km/h)

Some old avalanches are still clearly visible. Probably from the large amounts of fresh snow in recent weeks. Today's snow report was +2. Apart from the warming, there weren't many danger signs to be seen, especially on the south-facing slopes. Unfortunately, we were unable to reach the summit due to the poor visibility.

Volle Hütte im Bedretto. Nachts stehen dort inzwischen regelmäßig 30-40 Autos. Gegen Mittag waren es bestimmt 100. Der Regen hat uns die Tour leider unten raus etwas versaut. Im oberern Drittel der Tour war es Bombe. Schade, dass der Gipfel nicht ganz erreicht wurde.
