Wolkig am Unterberghorn

Overall impression
Snow condition
In the upper part of the Unterberghorn in Kössen, there was a good enough base. However, we are still only talking about maximum thicknesses of just under one meter. It is usually much less. Around 30 cm. In the lower part, the snow cover decreases exponentially until it is no longer present in the valley.
Snow quality
Fluffy at the top in shady areas. In sunny areas with a light cover, which is usually softened and rarely frozen, and the usual water battle at the bottom.
Risks
Today's avalanche situation was estimated at a 2 below 1600m, especially for the Chiemgau Alps, and a 3 above that. The situation in Tyrol is similar and somewhat worse. Hence this tour in the ski area.
Overall impression
The snow was great fun to ride. Always very grippy and rarely in contact with the ground. Not a powder dream, of course, except for the first 2 turns, but this winter is very modest anyway.
