Exposition
Snow condition
Due to the strong wind, there is little fresh snow on the surface, only hollows are filled. Descent possible up to 1100m, it will still be possible for a while at the top
Snow quality
Above 1700m a mix of powder and sleet with lots of wind. Therefore alternating hard or powder. But ok for May. Below 1700m wet snow or firn depending on the expo
Risks
Wind intensity: Low (< 20 km/h)
When I got back down, you could hear a loud thunderclap, probably a wet snow avalanche. Ice sharks are an issue, I got smashed by one...
Overall impression
Possible by bike in the Oytal as far as the Prinzenkreuz.

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!
