Better

Shortly before the actual storm, of course, you are quickly soaked and hold back with the tempting blanket of fresh snow as the base in the forest still offered little. But at some point you do dare and are then rewarded in wide hollows. On the leeward side behind the edge of the forest in the SE, it is now also really suitable for powder. For carefree treeskiing, however, you still need a few hours of precipitation below zero degrees.

Note on Conditions Reports

The ConditionsReports are user-generated content - from freeriders for freeriders! Recently, a distinction has been made between MiniReport, which offers a quick status report with location, image/video and text, and ProReport, which requires more detailed information and can be uploaded by advanced users.

Every registered user can enter the MiniReport in the WebApp, iOS app or Android app. If you would also like to upload ProReports, please write to us at conditionsreporter@powderguide.com so that we can activate it for you and briefly explain it to you!
If you need help with the operation or have suggestions for improvement, please write to us at app@powderguide.com!

Thank you for your contribution to the PowderGuide project!
