Over, over, over!

Overall impression
Snow condition
Everything that gets a lot of sun is slowly but surely drying out or is already bare. Only in the typical holes á la Zastler is there still a decent snow cover. Even the easiest standard tours such as Toter Mann - Feldberg are no longer feasible, as there is (almost) no snow left even in the shady forest.
Snow quality
If the little snow freezes at all at night, it melts very quickly and then quickly becomes rotten so that the skis hardly ski at all. Not good.
Risks
The snow cover is soaked and the steep slopes are very well blown in. The risk of wet snow and ground avalanches is certainly high.
Overall impression
The second worst winter of the past 20 years is - finally - over here. However, precipitation with cold temperatures is actually forecast for next weekend. Let's see what happens.

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!
