In Oberstdorf side valleys from 1200 - 1400 meters still good snow conditions.

Snow quality

3 von 5 Sterne
Hard, pressed snow
Slush
Powder snow

In northern expos above 1400 meters, good powder snow has been preserved - otherwise the snow quality suffers from prolonged exposure to the sun

Risks

Crevasse or fall danger
Diurnal warming

Wind intensity: No Wind (0 km/h)

Like thunder during a storm - the snow thunders down to the valley from the steep rock steps, usually in small spaces, due to the sun's rays. However, you should not be out and about there. There is also a danger from sliding snow cracks. Advisable time management / tour selection and slope assessment

Overall impression

Equal

Gliding deluxe in the side valleys of Oberstdorf. Slightly less snow than in the KWT but still good and very good from 1500 meters upwards Pictures Martin Hölle Photographie

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!
