Snow report Grisons, 02/15/2020

Snow condition

Around 2,000m on the pass road, the slopes to the north and south have taken away and transported a lot. There are rocks, plants and bushes sticking out on many climbs. You find a way, it gets much better from 2,300 and you have plenty of snow at the top. On the descent, not every line reaches the car. All in all, there is still plenty of snow!

Snow quality

Changeable. Conserved powder in the north. But only where there was no wind. Fantastic slopes from 2,000 - almost 3,000. But there can be one in 20 turns where you get a crust. On average, however, good to very good. The sun came in at the southern expo and caused the whole thing to settle slightly over the course of the day. Not yet tragic, there won't be any crust overnight, but it has become heavier. Conclusion: search and enjoy!

From Thursday to Friday we had 15-20cm of stormy snow (we were in the tent and it wasn't nice!). Where it has blown off, you can see a crust of old snow that is 10cm thick and serves wonderfully as a weak layer. I was able to observe this extremely in the southern expo. In addition, there was fresh snow where drift snow was laid over 1m (and more) high on these layers in places. Very often areas with a little too much snow! Conclusion: the triple is justified!

Overall impression

Solid 3 stars because we had a good nose, many slopes are nice to ski and at the end of the day (unfortunately no picture) the north side was still really deep in powder. Search, find, enjoy. There have been worse things this winter
