Overall impression
Snow condition
The snow conditions this year are significantly better than last year in October. The slopes above the Alpincenter are in good condition. In the morning there was about 5 cm of fresh snow on the slopes. Unfortunately, there was a mix of rain and sleet up to around 2400 m today and the foehn of the last few days has certainly also prevented better snow conditions. But we can be quite satisfied for October. But we still need a lot more snow for real off-piste activities.
Snow quality
Quite nice to ride in the morning, but the snow got heavier as the day progressed.
Risks
The main danger at the moment is from rocks and crevasses. See also the fatal accident last week (fall into a crevasse).
Overall impression
Due to the bad weather, it was fortunately a little less busy today. So we were able to enjoy the first turns of what will hopefully be a very long and good winter.
I wish everyone an accident-free winter and, above all, stay healthy!
