Overall impression
Snow condition
Quite good, even if you don't have to go into superlatives just because the last two years were so horrible. But it's nice to be able to ride quite well in the forest right down to 800m.
Snow quality
Yes, it was nothing. A splintering crust of maybe 1-2 cm all the way up. 2 stars because it wasn't completely unrideable and the milling through it was beguiling.
Risks
According to LLB Allgäu 2/2, we found it reasonable to ride the steep northern flank of the Hochgrat today.
Overall impression
4 stars, certainly not because of the snow quality. But the atmosphere, the light, the northern flank of the high ridge cast in icing was too brilliant today to attach excessive importance to such minor issues as snow quality. The engraving of our line with loud splintering and rustling in this icing was almost magical in the golden light of the last light. Wow.
