Snow condition
My first day in the Pitztal this season. There was already more snow up in the area in many a January, but it was enough to ski the classics. I skipped the descent from Mittagkogel. A few people made the pilgrimage up, but I like my skis... At the bottom, it already looked like contact with the enemy.
Snow quality
As usual in spring: very variable. In wind-protected areas up to a maximum of approx. 30 cm of powder on a soft base. There was a nice dusting, even in the afternoon, and in steep, blown-out sun gullies, of course, sticky fresh snow on top of the harsch. All in all, the best snow this winter for me.
Risks
Relatively relaxed. The steep sunny gullies were almost all cleared by the afternoon. Few signs of wind during the last snowfall.
Overall impression
For me, one of the best days this winter: Cloudy/foggy weather until midday and still good ground visibility, so the snow stayed good. Blue skies from midday. Few people, low temperatures, relaxed skiing in top snow.
