Exposition
Snow condition
Some fresh snow on a still weak base. In the forest below, stone contact could only be avoided by walking, otherwise, with care, the snow conditions are sufficient. Better snow conditions would make the ascent easier, especially in terrain transitions.
Snow quality
Up to half a meter of fresh snow, of the finest quality. Great to ski!
Risks
Wind intensity: High (40 – 60 km/h)
The LLB warned of drift snow, but there was no sign of wind influence below 2000m. That's why the conditions were very favorable for us today. Of course, this can look different at higher altitudes.
Overall impression
We chose a small valley/ a wide gully that stretches up to 2100 meters. The ascent was difficult due to a weak base and lots of fresh snow, and terrain transitions were difficult. The descent was pretty *WOW*. You couldn't feel the base until about 1200. With a better base and a little more sun, this would be 4****, I categorize this tour as 3***+!
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!
