Overall impression
Snow condition
The route de Poursollet from La Morte is free up to 1500m, so there is also enough snow in the forest up to this altitude, it has not snowed for two weeks, in the southern slopes there is a lack of snow even at higher altitudes.
Snow quality
The conditions have been spring-like since the beginning of last week until next Thursday. The snow on shady north-facing slopes is firm but grippy, e.g. in the Pas de la Vache, picture 2. South-facing slopes are best skied in the late afternoon, after which it becomes slushy, e.g. on the descent along the Ruisseau de Gueriment, picture 4.
Risks
Since it hasn't snowed for weeks, the northern slopes are also stable, which is unusual for this time of year, and in the afternoon snow slugs form on steep southern slopes, signs of possible wet snow avalanches.
Overall impression
Beautiful day trip of the CAF GI to the foot of the Taillefer in excellent weather and spring-like conditions.
