Snow quality
Not quite as deep as yesterday, but 30 cm fast Flitzepow is really fun.
Risks
Wind intensity: Medium (20 – 40 km/h)
Small-scale terrain below the tree line with nothing above it is still the preferred staging area.
Overall impression
We're actually in Vallorcine right now, but there's nothing going on, Col de Montents is closed and you can't get through the tunnel either (neither by train nor by car). Otherwise we would have taken a tour with PG safety officer Salta. So we went a bit eastwards and paid a visit to the oracle with his better half. It was worth it, a nice day in Flitzepow.

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!
