Snow report Kleinwalsertal, 02/24/2017
One more Powder Day, in the small Walsertal.

Overall impression
Snow condition
Almost like Groundhog Day. Again approx. 20cm of fresh powder on a load-bearing surface. Mountain pine passages are also feasible. Free choice of route and valley descent possible almost without restrictions. Pure south-facing slopes and high forest are the exceptions here ...
Snow quality
It was quite cold today, so the fresh powder was well preserved, at least on the north-facing slopes. The snow remained on the trees in the shade, even in the valleys. Quite heavy in the sun. Hardly any wind loads observed, almost everything skiable without a lid.
Risks
The aforementioned loose snow slides in the sun. No major wind loads (not even in the ridges) observed below 2400m. No major snow slides were triggered either on the south-facing ascent or on the descent. I think the Vorarlberg Dreier was rather defensively published today, at least in the Wilden and Gemsteltal valleys.
Overall impression
Great powder day, used for an unusual ski tour.
