Overall impression
Snow condition
At the moment there is a very good base, which will hopefully contribute to perfect powder days in the coming weeks. Rare stone contact and there are only bare patches on ridges due to drifts. Otherwise everything
Snow quality
On north-facing slopes, there is very often hard snow, which sometimes turns into ice slabs. In addition, there is a lot of drifting due to the strong wind, which of course guarantees fun if the risk (slope inclination etc.) is taken into account. From midday onwards, there is very heavy and wet snow on many slopes (mainly south-facing).
Risks
Individual self-releases have been sighted, but with good observation most of the driving is possible. You should be particularly careful with the loads as there is a lot of snow. Gullies should also be treated with caution. A wet snow avalanche can be expected at any time on the south side.
Overall impression
Super ingenious day, which also hit the bones due to constant hiking. If you want to dust off some pow next to the piste, you should be in the area very early and otherwise HIKEEEEEEN.

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!
