Snow condition
Snow quality
Overall impression
Snow condition
There is also enough snow on the eastern edge of the Alps. We were mostly in the forest and had no contact with the ground.
Snow quality
The snow has held up well due to the cold temperatures. 30 - 40 cm of powdery snow on a layer of harsh snow. There was still some untracked terrain, so it was great for riding.
Risks
Large sliding snow avalanches could be observed, especially on the sunny slopes. Clear signs of wind could be seen on the shady slopes. Wind signs and settling noises could also be detected in the sparse forest at approx. 1700m.
Overall impression
The conditions were exceptionally good for the eastern edge of the Alps, and the weather was also better than expected. Powder snow and partial sunshine make for a five-star combination.

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!
