Arlberg on 23.11.2024 | chevchelios

Snow quality

Very fine, cold powder snow on some slopes. Further up (approx. above 1800m) the wind has transported a lot of snow and the wind influence is noticeable. Western slopes are to be avoided, better snow on the south-east side and not too high.

Lots of drift snow to watch out for. In high alpine terrain certainly more prone to disruption than on the south-facing, lower slopes, which were previously completely free of snow.

Overall impression

After the rest of Tyrol unfortunately only received cosmetic amounts of fresh snow, the Arlberg was chosen as the tour destination with its acceptable measured values. We found good powder with sufficient snow conditions. Unfortunately, as the weather warms up, the powder fun on the southern slopes will soon come to an end. Luckily we were still early today to make tracks next to the snow cannons. The masses came up after us. Not worth it in the coming days.
