Exposition
Snow condition
Less snow than usual at this time of year and some large rocks are still sticking out at the top. Nevertheless, the whole route is skiable without any rock contact and most of the crevasses are closed.

Snow quality
The wind must have been at work here. A little hidden powder mixes with wind-blown snow and hard spots. The steep exit couloir in particular is hard, but never so icy that you're afraid of slipping.
Risks
Wind intensity: Low (< 20 km/h)
Overall impression
This variant is rideable, you just encounter lots of old tracks and constantly changing snow. The ambience is of course great! In principle, everything changes with the snowfall anyway, which according to the weather forecast should last for a good two weeks from tomorrow.
