Overall impression
Snow condition
Very good. It becomes really clear at the sliding snow mouths. Some of them are already crevasses. Of course, you shouldn't stay there. Some places have blown off and there can be as much as 8m of snow in some hollows.
Snow quality
Best on the south side. It was stable up to 2300m and nice to ski on Saturday. Schindler were also quite nice in the wind-pressed snow. Overall, nothing earth-shattering. More nice than really good.
Risks
Crass blasting successes. Albona Nord went down almost as far as the parking lot in Stuben. That was a very "targeted" blast. Apart from that, there was something everywhere that was blown up. Occasionally there were also rivets, but then one went off 100m further on. Today snow plumes, note the fresh drift snow. Slippery snow mouths almost everywhere, concentrated in the south.
Overall impression
Thursday and Friday were very critical. Even though the snow came in wet and the temperatures are mild, it takes a few days until it's no longer quite so critical. You don't miss anything in terms of snow quality, the base is excellent.
