Skitour auf den Zinken bei sehr feinen Conditions!Eigentlich wollten wir auf den Genner gehn und uns die Nordflanke anschaun. Aufgrund des Windes haben wir das allerdings unterlassen. Auch die Ostflanke vom Genner ist recht eingeblasen und schaut heikel a

Overall impression
Snow condition
Super! really cool! I'm almost tempted to give away the 4th star. The Osterhorn group really got a lot of snow. About 1.5m of snow, maybe more in places. Everything is rideable. Even in the forest it's a dream and ground contact is impossible!
Snow quality
On the south side, as everywhere else, there is a light crust. In the forest aisles on the shaded side you'll find set powder, still knee-deep. Simply a dream to ski. At the top it is partly blown off and a bit wind-worked.
Risks
Strong winds from the south to southwest are blowing the powder around quite a bit. Large snow plumes on summits and ridges. Areas blown in should definitely be avoided. The LLB says it's a 2. But I don't think they expected so much wind. In the north and east exposures it's definitely very dangerous, and the usual snow mouths are opening up on the south side.
Overall impression
Fine ski tour in really great weather with a really good powder descent. More of this please!
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!
