No risk - lots of fun, powder skiing with a taut 3-seater
Salzburger Land North

Overall impression
Snow condition
Old snow in this corner still reaches up to ~1100m on the shady side, much higher on the sunny side. On the German side of the Dürrnbachhorn, you can ski back down to the parking lot via the cross-country ski trail. On the compact rain crust, we found a surprisingly weak 10-30 cm of fresh snow on our windward slope. the wind influence increases strongly with increasing altitude.
Snow quality
Super nice powder up to approx. 1200m, harder below that
Risks
Very tense. LBB 3. thought long and hard about whether we should venture up the almost 30° (!) steep summit slope, but then decided against it due to the local snow cover.
Overall impression
Blower in April! My tip: look for sparse forest and/or tracks just below the tree line, stay above 20° (the lower, the slower) and below 30° gradient and enjoy the last pow. And if in doubt, choose slopes facing the wind, as there is inevitably only the snow that has fallen with less wind. Be careful out there!

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!
