Snow condition
In general, there is still too little snow for this time of year, but the wind influence is limited below 2500-2700m. Between 1700-2500m there is powder snow on an acceptable base in the northern exposures, the base under the fresh snow on the southern sides is hard, frozen and mostly quite good.
Snow quality
The last fresh snow is powdery above 2000m on the shady sides, below 1700-2000m and on the sunny sides the snow is heavy and soaked
Risks
The LLB actually says it all. Caution is advised with old and new drift snow accumulations in lee areas. Wet snow slides can occur locally at lower elevations.
Overall impression
It was a nice day of skiing with a few acceptable turns in yesterday's fresh snow. With good visibility, it's even possible to make several continuous turns. However, there is still not enough snow to make lines without any worries. The last snowfall was good but we still need a few more like this.
