Variations of snow cover

Well, bad overall, of course. The lower and middle sections are particularly bad. You can still do something at the top in suitable corners, but you have to cycle and carry a long way.

Hm, pretty funky conditions, unfortunately none of it really good, the top is dominated by melt and wind harsh, as well as tough slab powder. Unfortunately, the bottom was very tough, slow, damp and difficult on my descent.

Wind drifted snow

North North-Eas

Intensity: low

Altitude: 1700 m – 2100 m

Risks

Diurnal warming
South-East South South-West West

Wind intensity: High (40 – 60 km/h)

Extremely strong southerly winds were a constant companion, but there wasn't much to transport. Stones are the main danger.

Joa, nice to have been in the cirque again, but snow-wise it left a lot to be desired. Good thigh training though! Let's see, there's still room for improvement with long routes. I'm hoping for April powder, as we've often had in recent years...

Note on Conditions Reports

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!
If you need help with the operation or have suggestions for improvement, please write to us at app@powderguide.com!

Thank you for your contribution to the PowderGuide project!
