Jelly snow
Wind drifted snow

Everything you can imagine. Although there are always at least five PowderGuide surfaces, you have to be looking for cruising through the pampas.

Wind drifted snow

North

Intensity: strong

Altitude: 1200 m – 3100 m

Risks

Diurnal warming
South

Wind intensity: Extreme (> 60 km/h)

We used the drift snow we were warned about in the early morning to fast Galti, but later the massive load really made any exposed undertaking questionable. In the lower part, the strong foehn led to free refills on the long wall.

Overall impression

5 von 5 Sterne
Worse

Under the supervision of the CR manager, there are only five at the PG meeting. After consultation in the group, we would actually award at least seven. But a great Galti round and two first lines in the Laub should be surpassed at this time of year.

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!

Thank you for your contribution to the PowderGuide project!
