Wilder Kaiser

Snow condition

In the Griesner cirque, you can already carry classic skis into the cirque above the tree line. In normal years, this is only necessary well after Easter. The notches at the top are also becoming increasingly narrow, the falses are coming out again. Overall, above 1500 m but still usable snow conditions

Snow quality

The second star for the fast groomed sulz in the middle section, which was easy to shoot. Otherwise - even at the very top - often somewhere between still cardboard and already rotten snow. Slowly.

Over the course of the day, some impressive medium-sized wet snow avalanches have come down from the steep slopes. Everything was already soft in the morning - it hadn't frozen over. Nevertheless, the routes seemed quite safe.

Overall impression

Third star for the crew and the coffee & cake break on the Pflaum :) Kaiser is still going, but expect end of May conditions
