Overall impression
Snow condition
Thanks to the snowfall at the weekend, there is now also enough snow in the forest from about 1000m to drive carefully. From 1400m there is about 80cm.
Snow quality
Snow has already settled between 1000m and 1600m and is of the heavier variety. Unfortunately, I didn't get any higher today as we decided to abandon the tour.
Risks
Some of the snow cover was already well consolidated, but there were also larger snow drifts. We observed a few small slides that went down in areas >35°. The conditions in the Vertatschakar, through which we wanted to ascend, were very unfavorable in the upper part (20cm of blown-in powder on icy ground.
Overall impression
Even though we had to abandon our tour after 2/3 of the way due to the increasingly poor visibility and unsafe conditions, we were compensated with a few meters of untracked deep snow.
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!
