Snow report Niederalpl, 12/17/2022
Snow condition
Snow quality
Overall impression
Altitude
1100 - 1700m
Avalanche warning level
low (1)
Exposition
Snow condition
Up to 50 cm. But actually still too little for real skiing in the terrain (apart from very good-natured areas such as wind-protected meadows or very loose forest with good ground).
Snow quality
Dust on crust: 2 cm of fresh snow on a hard crust, loose old snow underneath.
Risks
Wind intensity: Medium (20 – 40 km/h)
Stones, dead wood and similar obstacles with little snow are the main hazards.
Overall impression
Still a somewhat subdued start to the season on the eastern edge of the Alps. At Niederalpl it is certainly wintry (not least due to cosmetic fresh snow that has covered the trees in sugar overnight), but still suboptimal for off-piste skiing. The small ski area on the Niederalplpass is also already open. However, the crowds are still limited here too.

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!
