Snow condition

2 von 5 Sterne

There have been much worse conditions in October. The pistes are all easy to ski on, sometimes a little icy. Only partly good enough for off-piste.

Snow quality

3 von 5 Sterne

Due to the light snowfall yesterday, powdery snow predominates and now and again the ice appears.

Risks

The greatest danger at the moment is probably still from the crevasses, but the risk of avalanches should not be underestimated. The wind has transported the few centimetres of fresh snow and the risk of triggering an avalanche is high, especially on steep, shady slopes. Below the gondola just before the summit station, two slabs have already been triggered today.

Nice first day of skiing with a few turns in the powder snow:)

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!
If you need help with the operation or have suggestions for improvement, please write to us at app@powderguide.com!

Thank you for your contribution to the PowderGuide project!
