Above 1800 in the shade, cold conserved powder that tightens on the ground and is therefore not really fast. Almost sticky or icy at the bottom.

Risks

Old snow problem
South-West West North-West

Wind intensity: Low (< 20 km/h)

Only the boulders in the vegetables. In the upper open terrain, old snowfields in sunny exposures tend to fall in patches. It is unclear whether the ground is not frozen enough or whether there is water in it.

Overall impression

3 von 5 Sterne
Equal

A few turns in vegetables and that certain feeling returns. I wouldn't really dare to go out there yet. Many people feel differently. And according to the recycling of leftovers, everything that wasn't three above the trees was thoroughly plowed through.

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!

Thank you for your contribution to the PowderGuide project!
