Powder snow

In the morning supposedly still heavy. B at noon when we arrived all-in snow. free blower in every vegetable. 60cm of powder on powder is good even without a blower.

Risks

West North-West

Wind intensity: Medium (20 – 40 km/h)

Initially, the moist blanket under the clouds was probably mobile. From midday onwards, the critical amount was probably exceeded and the skiff was large, but shortly afterwards it was a very homogeneous story. On open slopes, the wind naturally pushes something together and it gets impressively big.

Overall impression

Better

At first, we didn't even get half a star because all the resorts in the Upper Valais were gradually shutting down or saying they had technical problems. Or the answer was: "We can take you skiing if you don't go down!" So off we went after the oracle. And once again, it had done everything right. After two runs the confidence was there, after two more the realization of the possibilities and then just pure powder enjoyment. Sixth star for the full-charge soup: "Vous avez meme faire une petite montagne du peuf!" PowUp!

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!
