Snow report Fieberbrunn, 12/25/2024

Snow condition

Rather 2 to 3*, there are already some very inadequate areas, especially at higher altitudes exposed to the wind. You can't do without enemy contact. However, protected lee-side forest aisles and domed terrain at medium altitudes are really deep and you can accelerate with a little foresight.

Snow quality

It was great in the shade all day, but then a lot of it was spurt in the early afternoon. On the sunny side you could already feel the radiation, there will be a cap tomorrow. All in all, it was great, but I haven't had really good snow for a while... ;)

The influence of the wind has already been seen at high altitudes, sometimes with little snow there. I would avoid steep high altitudes. Moderate terrain at medium altitudes looks stable. Occasional sliding snow cracks on steep, sunny grassy slopes.

Overall impression

Yes, a very cool powder bluebird day! There was still plenty of untracked snow to be had by lunchtime and the snow was mostly great. But there were also areas with too little snow. I would avoid exposed high areas. Tomorrow you can still get some good stuff by hiking, otherwise most of the nearer areas will probably have been rutted. The sunny side is probably not that great either. Oh, if only it could go on like this....
