Overall impression
Snow condition
The snow conditions would be very good if the base wasn't missing. Today it was a good 30-40cm. Some of the ridges have been blown away but due to the lack of a base, the meadow looks out anyway. From yesterday to today, another 10-15 cm was added and the tracking started all over again.
Snow quality
As I said, if there was a base, I would give it 5 stars. The snow is great, but unfortunately you do occasionally graze the ground.
Risks
Defensive behavior was the order of the day. Poor visibility and strong winds didn't make it any easier. We didn't leave the forest and at 1500m you could feel a certain tension in the snow cover. Downhill direction east.
Overall impression
It would be perfect with some carpet pad, but you have to praise such good descents at the very edge of the Alps.
The ConditionsReports are user-generated content - from freeriders for freeriders! Recently, a distinction has been made between MiniReport, which offers a quick status report with location, image/video and text, and ProReport, which requires more detailed information and can be uploaded by advanced users.
Every registered user can enter the MiniReport in the WebApp, iOS app or Android app. If you would also like to upload ProReports, please write to us at conditionsreporter@powderguide.com so that we can activate it for you and briefly explain it to you!
If you need help with the operation or have suggestions for improvement, please write to us at app@powderguide.com!
