End of valley tour Hinterglemm

Overall impression
Snow condition
In the southern exposures, the snow is already starting to get scarce, and even on the ascent you soon have to unbuckle. From around 1600m it is much better and most of it is still well snow-covered.
Snow quality
OK, but nothing more, which was also due to the sometimes less than ideal choice of route. A little firn in places, but often rock-hard with absolutely minimal powder cover.
Risks
Very stable conditions. Also stable on the sunny side in the afternoon. It was quite cold at night and not as warm during the day as a few days before.
Overall impression
Overall, the snow was less bad than we had feared and the amount was just enough to get through without unbuckling. So it was a good day and we managed to bag a few peaks. There were still (too) many other tourers on the first ascent, but it became much more lonely on the rest of the way.
