in the bärgüntletal: closed snow cover, from about 1400m. from about 1600m, something like fresh snow, as creamy, very heavy pow. above 1800m quite good pow, on a supporting base. departure at 10.30h, was too late for the area below 1600m today. cruel break.

Risks

Diurnal warming
North

Wind intensity: Extreme (> 60 km/h)

no avalanches or slides seen. as it was relatively cool, despite the longer sunny stretches, quite safe today.

Overall impression

4 von 5 Sterne
Equal

it will be a while before summer snow forms in the areas mentioned. today was a very good and quite sunny ski day, with lots of firn and sulz. the break is also part of it ... bike&ski would also be possible in the upper valley.

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!
