Paznaun Valley
Snow condition
Snow quality
Overall impression
Snow condition
Still bad. Some things are possible, some are not. Below the tree line there's still nothing to do. Even higher up, you'll always hit rocks, although leeward slopes generally go quite well, others not at all. You're lucky if you've been there before and know roughly where something was before the snowfall...
Snow quality
Great powder snow (20-30cm), but completely bound (wind). Almost everywhere soft and great to ski, below about 2100m you occasionally get through to the hard base or old tracks. In some areas light wind harsh cover.
Risks
Critical. The fresh snow is easy to release wherever it is steep enough. We have seen several snow slabs triggered by winter sports enthusiasts. The cracks are quite large, despite the small amount of fresh snow. Stay on the flat.
Overall impression
Nice day, quite busy but still relatively relaxed, it was good until about noon, then tracked down. If the base was better or the avalanche danger lower I would give it 4 stars.
