Snow report Andermatt / Gotthard, 11/07/2014

Snow condition

It's nasty, so much of this stuff someone has put up there. Wait a minute, Nov. 8th. How dare they not open the summit just because they can't get up there with the caterpillar because of all the snow.

Snow quality

You can probably expect that on November 8th it can be powdered fart-dry from top to bottom. City food at the top was great and at the bottom for Plusgerade normal fie. The cover from the morning softened quickly. Difficult from the middle station in the afternoon.

Well, since almost everything is almost from one litter, it's certainly a pretty homogeneous story. Very stable as long as cold and wind-influenced. We couldn't look at the summits. Everything that sees the sun from the morning onwards makes a descent if it is softened on rocks or on the meadow. (See background on pictures) The ravines are certainly dangerous. There are a striking number of holes in the shallow lower areas caused by streams in the snow, probably due to the lack of ground frost.

Overall impression

Wow, what a kick off. I'm just not giving the fourth star in the hope of more and the somewhat lazy finish in the lowest levels of the evening. So 3+ at least.
