Overall impression
Snow condition
Start at 700m possible without problems. Massive snow cover except at the summit. Here it is blown off in places and tufts of grass are sticking out
Snow quality
About 10cm new since yesterday. Blowing snow - powder where the wind came. Very sporadic wind cover and hardpack. Old tracks from the ascent and descent are still very noticeable. And even where it's running and looks untracked from yesterday, it's not homogeneous due to the wind loads.
Risks
Becoming more critical. There was a lot of drifting to be seen. Large cornices on the edges of the terrain even at 800 m. The wind came from the west today and therefore moved quite a lot to the east. But I would also be careful in other exposures over the next few days. You can hardly tell where there is a lot of snow and where there is little
Overall impression
Nice short tour to the Hündle. I lacked motivation a second time. The snow wasn't quite as smooth due to the hard surface.
