Snow condition

20 cm fresh snow
Variations of snow cover

There's still room at the top. You have to watch out for stones - as you have done all winter. But you can have fun in gullies and hollows. There was 15-20 cm of fresh snow at the top. Below, white ribbons of piste between green-brown meadows.

Wind drifted snow

Beautiful racepow and drifting snow until midday. Then the snow became heavier and heavier in the sun. Below slush and braking swamp.

Risks

Fresh avalanches
Diurnal warming
South

Wind intensity: Low (< 20 km/h)

A dangerous accumulation of drift snow near the ridge. Several spontaneous boards came down with strong sunlight. Most of them were small, but some of them had a 50cm edge. A section of ski slope was also buried and closed.

Dry slab avalanche

Worse

Nice lowtide racepow day and unexpected sun. Even at just under 3000 the powder gets heavy as the day progresses. So tomorrow will probably be worse

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!
