Almost everything was there, but despite the high temperatures this week in the N-NE and the shade, there was still fast powder with a depth of around 5-10cm. The worst was on the descent of the Modetour NW, bad braking snow alternating with ice. Overall, however, better than expected, so just 3 stars.

Equal

Due to the disagreement between LWD Vorarlberg/Tyrol, I didn't dare to try anything higher and steeper in the border area, but it was mostly good here too, even better than expected. Hopefully we'll get 20cm tomorrow, then Saturday will be good.

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!
