Snow report Grisons, 12/18/2017
Deep Pow Skitour im Val Mustair
Grisons
Snow condition
Snow quality
Overall impression
Snow condition
More than sufficient. In the valley (1600m) approx. 40cm, then quickly more.
Snow quality
Powder from top to bottom. Above approx. 2500m, sometimes heavily windblown and often capped. Still powdery in gullies and hollows.
Risks
A relatively tense 3. It is also fully justified. There is a floating snow foundation and on top of it (at 2600m, east-facing) there is about 60cm of well-set and bound powder. There are at least 2 weak layers, one of which is quite easy to release. So be careful!!!
Overall impression
It was very cold and quite windy from the SW on the ridges. Weather today was much better than forecast, with quite a lot of sun. Overall, the best ski tour of the season so far for me.

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!
If you need help with the operation or have suggestions for improvement, please write to us at app@powderguide.com!
