Only at the very top, in the Zastler and on the Immisberg still old snow. Above that about 20-30 cm of new snow. That was enough on the Immisberg not to get through to the base, unfortunately not quite enough in Zastler. Nevertheless, the snow conditions here are still very good overall. At Stollenbach about 20 cm on meadow.

Powder snow

You can't complain for April. Nice fluffy powder from the parking lot in the morning. At lunchtime, of course, it was much harder with the sunshine. Zastler, Immisberg and Stollenbach were still pretty good in terms of quality. Partly light cover or slightly wind-pressed.

Badisch Columbia also has a lot to offer in April. Last week it was still 20 degrees in a T-shirt, now I've skied 25 cm of the best Baden powder snow in the sunshine. Unfortunately quite busy for April and during the week. All of this in the very rare and pleasant company of Max, whom I would like to thank for "taking a back seat" when writing the obligatory CR :)

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!
