Snow report Central Switzerland, 01/27/2016

10 x Steinberg auf dem Titlis. Dies meine Ausbeute der letzten 10 Tage. Aber das Gebiet verdient zurzeit eher den Namen Piste als Freeridegebiet. Mit den breiten Latten hat es gestern viel Kraft gekostet. Die Tourenski heute waren bessere Wahl.

Snow condition

Well below average. The variants above 1800 meters such as Steinberg or Grosses Sulz can be skied well and without stone contact. As already described in the teaser, the variants can be skied almost like pistes. I wouldn't ride anything below 1800 meters - such as the Laub - at the moment. There are too many stones and roots.

Snow quality

1 von 5 Sterne

Everything is available except powder. Between 3000 and 2000 meters, the terrain is reminiscent of a soft slope after snowfall. Further down, crushed slush or hard snow.

Risks

SLF reports warning level 2. Due to the warm temperatures, the danger of wet snow avalanches will increase. Some have already fallen on the southern slopes below 2000 meters.

Overall impression

Well, despite everything, two wonderful days in the mountains. In any case, I'm in good shape now, if there are still one or two good days to come... And the peace and quiet in the Steinberg is simply heavenly every time. It's worth taking a break in between, enjoying the peace and quiet and remembering what a beautiful place I get to live in.

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!
