Eastern Alps South

Overall impression
Snow condition
About 15cm of new snow since yesterday. The new snow has a poor connection to the layer below, it fell under the influence of the wind and the snowfall and wind continued during the day (approx. 40 km/h wind).
Snow quality
The fresh snow is nice and fluffy, the layer underneath is hard. Where there were tracks, these have turned into hard humps. Don't be fooled by the soft surface, especially in poor visibility (like today) you have to be on your guard.
Risks
According to LLB LWS 2 for the mountain group. Personal assessment on the Tauplitz: 2 with a slight tendency towards 3, because even a small additional load caused clods to come loose and there was also a crack propagation across a steep slope. The amount of fresh snow is too small for much to really come loose here, and the older layers have bonded together well. Nevertheless, caution is advised, even sluff can pose a risk of falling.
Overall impression
Well ;) It's not worth driving here specially.
