For the beginning of March, winter has already retreated a long way up. However, good snow conditions from around 1500 meters. Downhill runs in the valley are no longer possible. Unbuckle and carry again and again - or by bike, if possible to the snow line. After discussions in the group, 1-5 cm of fresh snow emerged above 1700 meters

Firn
Powder snow

Well - unfortunately we were too early. We didn't get the forecast sun and warmth around the desired firn. So we had to make do with a little bit of powder on the north-facing slopes and some firn below 1700 meters.

Crevasse or fall danger
Diurnal warming

Wind intensity: Medium (20 – 40 km/h)

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!
