Snow condition

significantly less than on the Aosta Valley side, but of course it is usually enough for a descent in the vallé Blanche. However, due to the early access, all the couloirs in the moraine slopes are very easy to ski as they are still free of stones.

Snow quality

3 von 5 Sterne

Everything you can imagine apart from spring swamp. Powder in the shade, wind slush in the ridges, sun cover in the open flat sections and ice in the riverbed under the glacier.

Risks

easy, no tension and no recognizable activity until 3850. In the forest, old snow debris fields from the storm times.

Overall impression

4 von 5 Sterne

Panorama instead, peppered with one or two really nice lines. A nice Sunday stroll.

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!
