Snow condition

Relatively good snow conditions on the north side of the Grieskogel group. Depending on the surface, there are still a few rocks lurking, but even steeper, rocky gullies are quite good. Of course, it is still advisable to stay in the gullies and not ski the ridges. There is also an acceptable base in the forest on the north side.

Snow quality

Somewhat variable snow quality. Almost exclusively powdery and easy to ski, a little windswept in places. The fresh snow has already settled considerably. Sink depth not too high, but also little sluff and good for steeper terrain.

The old snow problem is still present, although the readiness to release has already decreased significantly. Some cracks can still be seen. Tracked terrain and lines with a previously hard-packed snow surface are better, but also require knowledge.

Overall impression

Sehr schöne Rinne in gutem Schnee gefunden. Die Kraxelei zum Gipfel war auch in einem angenehmen Schwierigkeitsgrad. Dazu traumhaftes Wetter mit absolut keinem Wind am Gipfel. Traumtagerl!
