Snow report Central Switzerland, 12/11/2014
Gemsstock Andermatt: Wow - you won't find as much snow as in Andermatt anywhere else in central Switzerland!!! Unfortunately, it's windswept, so you don't get that real freeride feeling here either.

Overall impression
Snow condition
The downhill run is also closed from Gemsstock. But there really is enough snow at the middle station. The amount of snow is given as almost 3 meters. This means that practically no stones are visible.
Snow quality
So powder is good on the slopes. Unfortunately, almost all the snow has settled, or rather it is wind-packed. You can still find good conditions in certain areas. But if you keep skiing through broken snow in between, you're not really relaxed on the slopes...
Risks
Warning level 2 is indicated on the Gemsstock. Nevertheless, a number of explosions could be heard shortly after closing time today. However, I didn't notice a snow slab lying anywhere at the foot of a slope all day.
Overall impression
Those who prefer to avoid the slopes will find the best conditions on the Gemsstock. Freeriding requires fresh snow. However, unlike most other Swiss ski resorts, there is a very good base.
