Descent to valley (to 1400 m)
Stone Contact avoidable

In the last nordstau there was 1.7m of fresh snow on the glacier, so the snow conditions were ok. Ascent through the Obersulzbachtal, from 1350m almost continuously on skis. However, the road was cleared up to 1700m. Today on the descent, therefore, more carrying points, soon it will be worthwhile with the bike.

You can find almost all types of snow. It was best on the glacier between 3300m and 2800m with settled powder snow and then between 2600m and 2000m firn/sulz. It was better than we had expected on the ascent.

Beautiful tour in a great setting. Snow and descent better than expected. Only the valley is really very long.

Note on Conditions Reports

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!
