Snow report Kleinwalsertal, 01/28/2016

Snow condition

It's still enough to drive down into the valley. All around, however, you can see that the snow is very thin or even "gone", especially on the southern slopes. Overall, the snow conditions are still below average, which of course isn't getting any better at the moment. There were a few centimetres of fresh snow overnight, which covered some nasty rocks.

Snow quality

There was all kinds of poop snow. But there were also a few nice turns in between. In the valley there was rotten snow in places, then a crusty blanket and above approx. 1,500m there were a few centimetres of fresh snow on a rock-hard base. The strong wind moved the snow immediately.

Stage 2, difficult to estimate, don't trust the roast at the moment. On sunny slopes, you'll probably be overtaken by the bulbs tomorrow. The few centimetres of fresh snow are unlikely to bury you, but they will immediately slide off in clods under load and could take you with them on steep terrain. The helicopter was also out and about, but couldn't see anything.

Overall impression

I would almost only give it one star because of all the day trippers. Nice laps, a bit of airing out, everything still in perfect condition - just fine. But at the moment you have to be a little patient.
