Exposition

Snow condition

3 von 5 Sterne
Descent to valley (to 800 m)
Descent through forest
Covered shoes

At the bottom, (cleared) forest roads slowly become problematic (we had a few short stretches at around 900-1100m). However, it is still possible to descend via meadows on the north side directly to the inn (780m). Forest below approx. 1300m is no longer really sensible to ski here. Some of the sunny slopes are already snowed out.

Snow quality

3 von 5 Sterne
Hard, pressed snow
Powder snow
Wind drifted snow

Very nice, fluffy and dry snow in some sections (fresh snow from last weekend). The usual mixture at the top: hard slabs, with soft drift snow in between

Wind drifted snow

North-Eas East

Intensity: low

Risks

No warning signs
North-West

Wind intensity: Low (< 20 km/h)

Avalanche warning level 1 applies to the whole of Styria at all altitudes! As there is still snow on the north side of the valley in many places, it is currently possible to go on spring tours (which normally require hours of carrying skis) with skis strapped on directly from the valley to the mountain and back. The wind was only a nuisance at the summit today. Light snow sweeping has produced fresh drift snow of low intensity (e.g. old tracks blown away).

Overall impression

3 von 5 Sterne
Equal

Fantastic conditions today in Upper Styria. Still snow down to the valley and low avalanche danger in sunny but cold weather.

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!
