Stubai Valley

Overall impression
Snow condition
The snow conditions have probably reached their peak at higher altitudes and on the glaciers, with the recent snowfall there is now a lot of snow. Down in the valley it's quite green, with descents still possible up to around 2100m.
Snow quality
Yesterday was quite nice with the fresh snow (about 40cm at 2600m). However, the fresh snow was already relatively damp, then wet towards the afternoon. The strong winds on Friday caused a lot of blowing, especially at higher altitudes. Today it was partly hard or firn, partly crushed snow and occasionally soft drift snow.
Risks
Not without it. The fresh snow was on the move with the warm temperatures, maybe again tomorrow when it gets warmer...
Overall impression
Yesterday quite good snow but unfortunately no visibility, today unfortunately not so good snow anymore.

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!
