Snow report Upper Black Forest, 01/20/2017
Doing laps in the depths of the Black Forest (450m - 900m)
Upper Black Forest
Snow condition
Snow quality
Overall impression
Snow condition
10 cm - 20 cm of soft snow on a thin, compact base. In the lower area, the base was so thin that some frozen lumps of earth were sticking out. Not bad for the skis, just rattled a bit when skiing. It's difficult with the stars today, you could give a third one for being able to ski down that far at all.
Snow quality
Soft and powdery, garnished with beautiful surface rime in places. Nice to ride.
Risks
Where I was out and about today was not an issue. The biggest danger for my fairly new trousers came from the barbed wire fences.
Overall impression
As I had to be on call today, I didn't want to go far and I didn't fancy the Stollenbachautobahn with the crowds. The surface was borderline but the weather was nice, the snow was good and I only saw one other skier in the distance. It was fun, conditions in the Black Forest are good.
