Snow report Vinschgau Valley, 05/27/2015
Southern Ötztal Alps
Snow condition
Snow quality
Overall impression
Snow condition
Quite good for the time of year, at the latest after the snowfall of the last few weeks. Lots of snow on the glaciers, then rapidly less outside, so you really have to search.
Snow quality
Due to the fresh snow, the wind and the rather cool temperatures, firn is not really widespread yet, but can be found below 2600 m. Otherwise there is a lot of windblown hard snow, but sometimes also very compact wind-blown soft snow.
Risks
Relatively relaxed, of course you have to pay attention to the daytime warming (which was limited today).
Overall impression
Partly really good firn, nice weather and the snow on the glaciers will last a few more weeks...

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!
