In search of powder in Obergurgl

Overall impression
Snow condition
Generally very little snow, only from approx. 2600m you will find a closed snow cover.
Snow quality
There is still dry powder to be found on the high north-facing slopes, which is fantastic to ski. But only for a few hundred meters in altitude. Otherwise you'll find typical slushy spring snow from midday onwards.
Risks
Pretty relaxed at the moment. There are a lot of old slopes, especially wet snow avalanches. In the afternoon you should watch out for slope warming.
Overall impression
Actually 4 stars, because we were still skiing really good powder. But with the snow conditions, you can't give it more than 3.
