Good Friday at the Kalter
Salzburger Land North
Snow condition
Snow quality
Overall impression
Snow condition
You also have to carry snow up to about 1200m-1300m, especially if there is forest above. Still good further up.
Snow quality
Basically good. Above approx. 2000m between 10-20 cm of fresh snow, some of which was slightly compacted. In between, there were always hard patches or old avalanche nodules. Below that, firny during the day.
Risks
Below approx. 2100 m, there is only a small amount of snow above that, which is sometimes brittle. Fine-grained floating snow is the underlying weak layer. However, the snow conditions change quite a lot on a small scale.
Overall impression
Very nice day on the Kalter, with surprisingly soft snow, although the quality was quite variable.
Didn't meet a soul in the snow on the whole tour, only a few hikers were on the forest path.
Unfortunately, I skipped the steep summit exit due to the blowing snow.
