Tour in the Lower Engadine -Val Maisas

Overall impression
Snow condition
Generally good snow conditions in the Lower Engadine. There is enough snow in the valleys to be able to ski in all exposures. The higher you go up, the more the wind was in play. Exposed ridges and ridges have been blown down a lot.
Snow quality
You can still find settled powder on wind-protected slopes. Generally speaking - for north-facing slopes - the more towards the valley, the better the snow quality. Slowly heavier where the sun came in from midday.
Risks
We didn't see anything on our tour so far. As the wind was raging in the heights, we opted for a defensive tour with hilly terrain. South-facing slopes started to rumble at midday.
Overall impression
Beautiful ski touring terrain, no one on the way and the snow was much better than expected, so we skinned up again at the bottom and did half the tour again.
