Snow condition

2 von 5 Sterne

I'm wavering between one and two stars, as off-piste skiing is only possible at the highest altitudes in the Upper Black Forest. From tomorrow, it will probably be all over for the time being with the current prospects. Only a few centimetres of the precipitation of the last few days has actually arrived as snow.

Snow quality

Conditions on the slopes were more or less like late spring next to the piste. As it hadn't snowed up, the surface was very hard, but the few centimetres of fresh snow made for a lot of fun on the steep slopes.

Risks

Today the main danger is a cornice avalanche, from tomorrow probably wet snow avalanches.

Overall impression

After our short trip to the Alps, we found a nice finale in the Black Forest.

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!
