Overall impression
Snow condition
You need to know very well the spot to find the few lines where it is possible to ski. We just got 5-8cm of new snow with stormy Northern winds... just enough to hide some stones...
Snow quality
Above treeline, the snow cover is strongly wind affected.the danger of hitting stones is high, moreover, especially on the paths for reaching the main valley, there is a lot of ice and slipping away is quite easy....
Risks
Avalanche danger level 2. Here you can find the local avalanche bulletin: https://www.livigno.eu/en/avalanche-bulletinThe snow cover is really wind affected and some of the wind slabs can stand on persistent weak layers... you need to watch out...
Overall impression
In these conditions you can enjoy the mountains but skiing is not the best.Since there is not a lot of snow, you can go for some ski-mountaineering in areas not generally accessible during winter....
