Snow report Obertauern, 01/15/2014
Some fresh snow, unfortunately not enough to cover the old tracks properly.

Overall impression
Snow condition
It snowed a little last night, but not much more than 5 cm. It's easily enough to be able to ski off-piste, but caution is advised in places as not all the stones/rocks are covered.
Snow quality
Well. Some of the new snow has been blown away by the wind, but the quality hasn't suffered. However, the thin layer of new snow is not enough to cover old tracks or the older, already hard layer of snow sufficiently. If you find a line where nobody has skied in the last few days, you can enjoy quite good powder, but it's not the fluffy madness. The snow has not bonded very well with the older layer, small clods have come loose, which are roughly the same height as the amount of new snow.
Risks
LWS 2 - is appropriate.
Overall impression
It's still far better in Obertauern than in some other areas in eastern Austria, we had a fun day too, but it was far from epic.
