Snow condition

4 von 5 Sterne

Sufficient snow from top to bottom in all exposures. A good 30 cm of soft fresh snow at the bottom (1600m). Above 2000m much more variable due to the many avalanche runners. However, everything was covered with at least 20 cm of snow, with significantly more soft fresh snow outside the avalanche paths.

Snow quality

3 von 5 Sterne

Set powder from top to bottom, the sinking depth was no longer so great, but it was nice and fast. There is a slight deduction for feeling the base on some avalanche foothills.

Risks

At the beginning of the week, a considerable amount of snow fell spontaneously, with some huge cracks. In the meantime, it seems to have settled down quite well, which would confirm the 2 from the SLF.

Overall impression

4 von 5 Sterne

Good snow, beautiful weather and nice company. So I round up to 4 stars.

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!
