Snow condition

Fresh powder and stable layers. There are some sharks in the steepest and hidden parts (like couloirs), but in open faces its wonderfull

Snow quality

Pow pow pow. Some snow drift, but visible and avoidable. 1-10cm loose snow. Dry and perfect.

Despite having a weak layer, it is very stable. In the snow pit test, a massive amount of force was requiered to break it.

Overall impression

The temperatures will keep the condition stable. Maybe the wont last too long because it is expected to get colder
