Descent through forest

From 1000m upwards, about 40 cm came together during the precipitation period, above 1100m it was more like 50cm, and there was still carpet pad everywhere. Lower down, the amount decreases significantly, but with a bit of commitment it went down to 850 m, without meadow underneath (last photo).

Wind intensity: Low (< 20 km/h)

Stable on my tour in the forest/forest snows. I saw a few very small, damp loose snow slides. Take care on the usual steep Triebschner slopes (Zastler, Baldenweger, Herzogenhorny-NO if necessary. To the PG-CR team: As there is no situation report for the Black Forest, I stuck to the SLF bulletin for the Jura for the stage

Overall impression

3 von 5 Sterne
Equal

The Black Forest winter is going into extra time. Not the finest snow quality and the snow conditions are of course a long way from the end of January, but you can still have fun. A solid 3 stars. As there's still some more to come, it'll probably stay good until the weekend, maybe it'll get a bit 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!
