Overall impression
Altitude
800 - 1900m
Avalanche warning level
moderate (2)
Exposition
Snow condition
Still more than enough snow down to the valley (even in the forest).
Snow quality
Dust on crust" at the bottom. From about 1300m upwards, significantly more fresh snow (from yesterday or tonight), which was quite fluffy. Some blowing above the tree line, but only to a small extent for this winter.
Wind drifted snow
Intensity: low
Risks
Wind intensity: Low (< 20 km/h)
The situation here (Schneealm) is much more relaxed than in the west (Veitsch, Hochschwab), where it has probably snowed and stormed more. The LWD issued level 2 above the tree line for here, and level 3 for today from Veitsch/Hochschwab westwards (this was a short-term update). Potential dangers here are mainly huge cornices (hanging threateningly over the Lohmgraben and over the Heualm). Today's drift snow was only minor and small-scale.
Overall impression
Quite a sunny day and fairly little wind for the area, even right at the summit. Nice descent down to the alpine huts (soft fresh snow on a hard base). Soft snow in the forest up to about 1300m, then "dust on crust" at the bottom as mentioned.

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!
