Snow condition

The base in Bedretto at 2000m is quite good and you can easily ski down into the valley on the north side. Couloirs are well filled and, if not littered with old avalanche cones, easy to ski. Some carrying is certainly necessary on the south side.

Snow quality

Very variable. Left turns in spring snow, right turns in powder and then back onto bare ice directly into drift snow accumulations.

A few centimetres of fresh snow and a lot of wind have created quite some accumulations in the lee, which could easily be released on the hard surface. Manageable with good route planning. Sliding snow slides have cleared entire slopes.

Overall impression

Bedretto delivers once again. Simply unbelievably good terrain. Great days with lots of new input and a super group. Delicious food on the Cristallina. Dolce vita in Ticino.
