Snow report Axamer Lizum, 03/23/2015

Snow condition

On the south side, as is often the case in Küthai, there is hardly any snow left and much is reminiscent of spring. Not much snow on the north side, but enough to ski down to the valley in all variations. Variants into the valleys in the backcountry also seem possible. Even lines that were very rocky the rest of the winter were often skied. These still look only partially inviting, but there are no stones to be seen in the tracks.

Snow quality

Two stars are awarded because the snow, which has been completely melted in practically all variants, has no cover on the north side and where it remains shady, there is even some dust. Otherwise the sun is already very high and there are only very few unaffected patches. Nice and slushy on the south side.

According to LLB 1 with diurnal variation to 2. We have observed a few spontaneous nasnow avalanches with punctiform avalanches. Nothing major, all in very steep terrain with sun exposure. So not surprising, but you should still be early now!

Overall impression

The foehn was right, although the sun wasn't always out. With the current snow conditions, you probably wouldn't have much fun for much longer, but fresh snow is in the forecast and at least on the north side it will fall on a halfway usable base.
