Exposition
Snow condition
still or again stony in the forest. also on terrain edges and ridges. On the south side, the base has shrunk somewhat due to the warm temperatures.
Snow quality
A little heavier below 2000m and good powder snow above. The snowfall was heaviest in the afternoon. At the top of the index there was a lot of wind and drifts
Risks
Wind intensity: Medium (20 – 40 km/h)
Poor visibility and obstacles in the terrain as well as blown-in east-facing slopes
Overall impression
A little too warm for the really light powder. Otherwise nice fresh snow to further cover the stones and poles in the terrain. More of it!
