Overall impression
Snow condition
Unchanged good, not much melting since yesterday. Nevertheless, the southern slopes are partly free of snow. However, this is more due to the massive sliding snow slides.
Snow quality
The standard descent is powdery and very enjoyable to ski. Some of the sun-exposed return climbs in the area are already lazy and should probably be skied earlier than 14:30. in general, there is still great preserved powder in all shady areas.
Risks
The danger of gliding snow is quite significant, even far beyond 2400 you can see the massive snow pack collapsing. Otherwise, conditions are favorable in the cold exposures. On the ridges you can sometimes find a layer of sugar in the middle. You should be very careful with steep ascents.
Overall impression
Bombastic terrain and the finest weather. Great cream turns whether in powder or firn and hardly any competition. When the days get colder again, the conditions will be very good for a long time to come.
