Still going well

Overall impression
Snow condition
The snow is slowly coming to an end. The 5-10 cm from Saturday night didn't make up for the loss of the last few weeks. The last "big" snowfall was exactly 3 weeks ago... You can still ski well in the valleys on the north side. Well-settled/heavily compacted snow. On the south side, it is already partly tapped out in many places up to approx. 1500m. Troughs/channels are the best choice here.
Snow quality
Quite chic in purely northern locations. The scarce 10 cm are on reasonably soft ground.
Risks
Still a 1 according to the LLB, but the wind was very strong from the west today. The little bit of snow from Saturday night was blown off/blown in. In steep terrain, I estimate the risk of being swept along when the drift snow accumulations are triggered as not insignificant.
Overall impression
Very nice morning until the front arrives around noon. It's now raining in the valleys...let's see what happens.
