Rough firn & sunshine
Salzburger Land North

Overall impression
Snow condition
It's slowly getting less and less even in the thickly covered areas, although you can occasionally still do things without carrying (like here from 1000m, but this is now the exception rather than the rule). In sheltered gullies and hollows, however, it should still be possible for a while.
Snow quality
If the timing is right and you stay out of the direct sun, then it firns up quite nicely in the morning (departure N side at 11:30 am). Unfortunately, the enjoyment was still limited because there was a lot of avalanche and ice debris lying around, and in the direct sun it immediately becomes bazzy.
Risks
Little snow in the morning. Everything compactly caked and rock-hard in the morning.
Overall impression
Beautiful weather, great views and lots of animal encounters.
Unfortunately, the descent was a little too rough for the third star. Nevertheless, a solid spring day.
A few more weeks should be good here...

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!
