Treeskiing in the "Secret Forest" near Tromsø
Northern Norway

Overall impression
Snow condition
Perfect, a little over the sea quickly a meter, further up also two meters. Since Sunday, another 20 cm have been added. Only some ridges and crests seem to have been blown off by the wind.
Snow quality
Also pretty good, at least above 200-300m. Quite heavy at the bottom due to the warm temperatures (+2°C in Tromsø right now). However, new snow and colder temperatures have been announced.
Risks
We were in the forest, so it's difficult to say much about it. In any case, Varsom.no has issued a triple, which seems absolutely justified due to the wind and the warmer temperatures. Avalanche pictures continue to be posted almost daily in the relevant FB groups.
Overall impression
Absolutely perfect ski tour in light snowfall and against a fantastic seaside backdrop. It's a good thing that over 500 m of descent in the forest are also possible here

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!
