Variations of snow cover

The snow line has been higher than expected over the last few days. So you could still set off at 1000 meters in the morning, but there was a lot of brown on the way back. Above 1500 it was still really good. Around 2000 the conditions were basically good, but the wind blew a lot of it off.

Powder snow

Still nice and cool and light from the bottom in the morning. Above 1500m it was still very easy to ski around 11am, but you could feel a frozen layer of ice here and there under the fresh snow. On the way back, I had to take off my skis just before the car and walk the last few meters. The spring sun was too strong for the few centimetres that were still there in the morning.

Risks

Diurnal warming
North North-Eas North-West

Wind intensity: Low (< 20 km/h)

Drift snow from the last few days was probably the main danger today. I was alone today and skied very defensively.

Nice short tour in Hasliberg. Few people and fantastic weather. Picked up a surfboard holder for the bus on the way back, now we can start planning for the summer.

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!
