Snow quality
Overall impression
Altitude
1400 - 2600m
Avalanche warning level
moderate (2)
Exposition
Snow condition
The snow conditions are quite good overall. All stones and similar obstacles are covered. However, the strong wind has exposed some of the ridges.
Snow quality
The snow quality is very changeable. From fresh snow, which was easy to ski on, to hard, piste-like conditions and firn, everything was there today.
Wind drifted snow
Intensity: medium
Risks
Wind intensity: High (40 – 60 km/h)
The main danger at higher altitudes is currently drifting snow. These packs can be large due to the strong winds in combination with fresh snow, but fortunately the good weather makes them easier to recognize.
Overall impression
Well, didn't expect much in terms of snow quality, but was rewarded with a short, beautiful slope. Of course, it's debatable whether the 1,100 m ascent is worth it, but it's cool for the views and getting to know the touring terrain. Plus perfect sunny days and not much going on, what more could you want?
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!
