Pizzo Lucendro - schwer Abstand zu halten

Overall impression
Snow condition
The start from the Gotthard Pass at 2100m is still possible without any problems and the journey to the trunk will certainly continue for some time. Basically, the corner had been exposed to more snow over the winter, but not in huge quantities.
Snow quality
It's the middle of May. Summer snow in the lower part, from 2500m it still firns up nicely. Start in the morning at 05.30 hard and crampons recommended. Departure from Lucendro at 09 o'clock? good on the east side. Via Fibbia back on the north-east side at about 10 am, one turn in braking snow and one with a lid. But still ok.
Risks
Don't be out too long, then it should be fine. Some groups set off from the parking lot at around 10.00 am...
Overall impression
I've rarely seen so many people in the last few months and that on a ski tour. I hope that Lucendro doesn't become the new Ischgl...
Nice tour nonetheless, but that's probably it for this season... But never say never...
