Snow condition

Ski tour Elmer Muttekopf from the road still doable with skis. The descent in the forest on the forest road is doable with great care, but already rocky. The summit area is blown up and the last 50 m on foot to the summit is snow-free on the south side.

Snow quality

run-in like a piste. Still powdery on the north side, sunny slopes very poor...melt crust, deep frozen tracks, ice bumps - a struggle. Very good conditions in north-facing gullies and powdery/grippy.

Strong wind from the south. No fresh accumulations of drift snow - there is simply nothing left that can fade and everything is rather hard.

Overall impression

Brilliant day, brilliant steep lines with good snow in gullies possible. The rest merged and/or bad snow on the sunny side.
