Overall impression
Snow condition
A very good rootstock in all exposures. On the south side, however, spring is already visible and areas are pitting. All the usual variations are possible. A cosmetic 5 cm of fresh snow fell with the cold front on Thursday.
Snow quality
Dust on Crust: Hardly any fresh snow on melted and refrozen ground. Quite difficult to ski. North side not soft until after midday. East side on the way to the parking lot at 1600m then quite wet. If you found exactly the right time and a smooth surface, it was good for cruising. But that was rather difficult to find...
Risks
According to the LLB, a typical spring situation. Many slides and also larger avalanches down to the bottom have confirmed this. Everything froze solid on the snow side below 2300 early on and was therefore rather uncritical.
Overall impression
Unfortunately, too little fresh snow and a poor base made the otherwise beautiful day not the ideal day.
