Overall impression
Snow condition
In the heart of Switzerland Mrs. Holle has shaken a lot - at 1200m about 60cm and from 1800m the meter mark is probably just about reached.everything fell without much wind - accordingly, paths, stream beds, uneven terrain are still clearly noticeable. Today about 10cm of new snow throughout the day. but a good basis is now in place.
Snow quality
Quite usable at the top with wind - bound snow. Fluffy when protected from the wind and relatively moist further down.
Risks
Lots of fresh sliding snow activity - especially on south-facing slopes. Due to poor visibility, we tended to stay in the wooded areas, where the dangers are mainly due to open streams, terrain edges, tree trunks, etc. The current LLB has been published again by the SLF since this week!
Overall impression
A nice, leisurely start to the touring season - it's definitely not enough here to go full throttle yet, but it was a good test in the most glorious snowfall
