Andermatt / Gotthard on 31.03.2025 | tobi13

Snow condition

except Straight South below 2300 really great. no stones and no fish.

Snow quality

A bit of everything. But overall rather good for touring and skiing. Exit Gemsstock even really a lot of powder / drift snow nice and soft. with a little eye only soft towers driven. here and light mini lid and some melting snow. runs.

We got our bearings today with the windows we had. Drift snow everywhere but well connected and stable. We were then surprised by an old avalanche (yesterday?), which turned out to be quite big. See the video.

Overall impression

Hey, overall top ski touring conditions. After overcoming the shock of the whiteout in the Gemsstockbahn and waiting for the weather, it got really good in the afternoon. Tomorrow with more visibility definitely 4*. And who has ever found a dead bumblebee at 2700 meters?
