Overall impression
Snow condition
Descent to the Giebelhaus on forest road possible. Depending on the slope expo at 1200-1400 meters, snow conditions are ok.
Snow quality
Today in search of firn on south/southeast facing slopes - depending on time management also found good slopes. But even on north-facing slopes there was still some powder with wind cover on top. Well, the harsch cover was a must.
Risks
Relaxed ! Already relaxed on the slopes, watch out for small to large avalanche moles on the descent.
Overall impression
Almost spring-like conditions. Everything green in the lowlands. Once again sun + firn + some powder - wonderful! In the early afternoon the first clouds were already moving towards the Allgäu Alps.
