Overall impression
Snow condition
The amount of snow in the foothills of the Alps is considerable. From Monday to Tuesday, a further 15-20cm fell on a base of around 35cm. For this reason, ski tours are already possible at low altitudes.
Snow quality
The snow quality was split in two. On the first descent in southern exposure, the influence of the sun was already noticeable. This is mainly an indication for south-facing ski tours on Wednesday. On the north side, on the other hand, the icy temperatures preserved the powder. The strength of the wind influence must also always be taken into account.
Risks
There were hardly any dangers to be seen locally. However, this was mainly due to the low gradient and the height of the tour. However, my experiences over the last few days show that the situation definitely requires caution.
Overall impression
Conclusion: 1. ski tours at low altitudes are also possible at the moment, see panorama photo; 2. it is also interesting to ski where people usually only go to drink coffee or go biking;
