Snow condition

40 cm fresh snow
Descent to valley (to 1000 m)
Descent through forest

Much better than expected. Start at approx. 1000 meters with approx. 40 cm of beautiful fresh snow (which, however, lies directly on the meadow). At least here there is nothing left of the good base. Further up, there is not much more fresh snow, but you can see here and there that there is still a bit of base left over from February.

Snow quality

Powder snow

OMG it's so fluffy. Nice cold fresh snow from the bottom. Towards the evening it got warmer, but it stayed below 0 degrees and so the next few days will certainly be fun.

Risks

Much fresh snow
North North-Eas East South-East South South-West West North-West

Wind intensity: Medium (20 – 40 km/h)

Due to the poor footing and the thick fog, I stayed on the "slope". The danger here, if any, comes from cross-country streams. These are sometimes not so easy to see when driving wildly.

Overall impression

3 von 5 Sterne
Equal

That was important for the soul. After weeks of deprivation, finally a little hope in these gloomy times. The possibilities are currently limited to altitudes above 1000 meters, but thanks to the fresh snow of the last few days, you can have fun here. It should stay like this for a while or get even better.

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!
