Lift-assisted touring at Pass Thurn

Overall impression
Snow condition
From Pass Thurn, you can easily start and ski down towards the ski area. I used the lift assistance to get a fast and higher starting position. The north-facing meadows are covered in snow, so you can have fun with a defensive skiing style and avoid contact with the enemy. I was mainly in the 1500 m and 2000 m range. On the south side, it doesn't look great in this altitude range.
Snow quality
On the north-facing meadows protected from the wind, I found beautifully set powder that was great to ride. Wherever the sun was more intense or the wind was more active, you should expect a cover (not always stable).
Risks
For me, the main danger today came from ditches, forest paths, tree stumps and streams. From steep, sunny terrain, you could occasionally see small slides.
Overall impression
Good weather, good snow and untracked terrain found.
