Snow report St. Moritz / Engadine, 12/01/2016
The green hell of Piz Palü - we weren't at Palü but in St. Moritz - but the green hell of St. Moritz just doesn't sound as good

Overall impression
Snow condition
I wasn't quite sure whether I wouldn't have preferred to put on my flip-flops - only the pitiful remnants of artificial snow convinced me that it had been winter since yesterday. No, the few slopes that are open consist of 90 % artificial snow. Nonetheless, it's quite ok to ski on them. No problems with botany or marmots. But just a piste.....
Snow quality
What's left is artificial snow - I don't think you need to say any more. Locals rumor in dark alleyways that there is still a small nest of natural snow on Corvatsch that offers resistance to the artificial snow.
Risks
Today I was rather afraid of being run over by the pre-après skiers practicing their plows. Apart from that, there are a few areas where the wind has deposited a lot (but these are easy to recognize - white spot on a green base)
Overall impression
This winter that everyone is talking about will work out one day......
