Exposition
Snow condition
In the accumulation areas it has put down over 70cm without wind and looks like a magic carpet. In the valley at 1000m there is 40cm of wet cardboard snow and it will soon be gone again.
Snow quality
In the morning between 2500m and 1800m finest powder, which constantly got stuck in the windpipes. WITHOUT the influence of wind. Towards noon it got a bit warmer and got stuck more and more. In the morning 5. at noon 4.
Risks
Wind intensity: No Wind (0 km/h)
Considerable+. Plumes of dust kept coming down from steep rocky terrain due to the amount of fresh snow. Some steep slopes slid away loosely on the surface. No slab formation observed. The descent into the valley was saved as all the spring-like grassy slopes had gone onto the piste.
Avalanche activity
Dry loose snow avalanche
Altitude: 2300 m
Overall impression
Breathlessness and the lowest day of the season so far. Visibility was ok and the sun shone for 10 minutes while the snow continued to fall. Tomorrow should be good again, you should be careful on the steeps with the amount of fresh snow and down in the foliage it was already quite damp and heavy. What a day and meadow slides right up to the boot.
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!
