Variations of snow cover

As you can see from some Salzburg ski touring forums, it's probably standard snow depth if you look through the turf away from the pistes. For me, it's well below average and not worthwhile for off-piste. Thanks to the piste, you can reach the valley station of the Jennerbahn!

Snow quality

2 von 5 Sterne
Wet snow

Well, extremely wet snow throughout at all altitudes and in all exposures. Last night and the morning were simply far too warm.

Risks

Old snow problem
Rockfall danger
Much water in the snow cover

Wind intensity: No Wind (0 km/h)

The greatest danger at the moment is probably from stones or wet snow. Further up, the snowpack should now probably also be well soaked, which is unlikely to have a positive impact on the avalanche situation in the short term.

Overall impression

2 von 5 Sterne
Worse

Well, classic Salzburg/Berchtesgaden conditions. Not good snow but nice views and a bit of sport. At least the slopes on the Jenner can be used for downhill skiing

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!
