Snow report Central Switzerland, 12/11/2015
Vom Brüsti mit Umwegen auf den Breitstock, 2464m - Wer sucht der findet. Klingt zugegeben abgegriffen, doch momentan (leider) hoch aktuell.
Central Switzerland

Overall impression
Snow condition
Not bad at all, but only if you compare the snow conditions in other parts of Switzerland or the Alps in general. There were no rock contacts, but most of the uneven terrain has not yet been ironed out with the coveted white. Western exposures are completely blown off in places, while the lee sides are well snowed in.
Snow quality
The 15-20 cm of fresh snow from 09.12. is now somewhat wind-blown, but still nice to ride. In some places, you can sometimes feel hard snow or, more unpleasantly, a layer of hard snow underneath. In general, the snow quality deteriorates with altitude and wind influence.
Risks
Moderate from 2500m, danger of fresh drift snow in gullies, hollows and ridges. The amounts are small, but you should pay the necessary attention to the risk of tearing. We were able to confirm this bulletin today. Unfortunately, the snow is increasingly changing and we encountered bottomless floating snow in places.
Overall impression
Central Switzerland is currently the perfect place for a few casual turns in pretty good snow. But of course, a heavy load is needed here too.
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!
