low (1)

Exposition

East South-East South

Snow condition

3 von 5 Sterne
50 cm fresh snow
Descent to valley (to 1100 m)

Much improved, but still thin. Good on meadows, still problematic on terrain transitions. Stone contact avoidable.

Snow quality

4 von 5 Sterne
Powder snow

Fluffy and cold powder. Unbound and rarely influenced by the wind.

Risks

Much fresh snow
North-Eas

Wind intensity: Low (< 20 km/h)

Everything is a bit more dangerous in the whiteout, and the amount of fresh snow is definitely considerable. Nevertheless, we found the terrain too flat and the snow too powdery and unbound. Hopefully there won't be any more wind!

Overall impression

4 von 5 Sterne
Better

I have hardly any idea what the conditions were like before this northern thaw, but they were certainly very green and unsuitable for ski tours. Now everything is covered in deep snow at Spitzingsee and the season could start! We had to contend with poor visibility and constant snowfall, but we were happy to do so. It was nice not to be sweating in the sun on a ski tour and then cruising on firn. Some powder, up to half a meter, without sun but nice to ski on the edge of the forest! Dream day!

Note on Conditions Reports

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!

Thank you for your contribution to the PowderGuide project!
