Avalanche warning level
considerable (3)
Exposition
Snow condition
Still very good for the time of year. Above 1200m you could easily cross steep forests with ravines.
Snow quality
From midday in S-Expos already so difficult that skiing is only limited fun > The steeper the slope, the worse the snow. N still good, but worse than on Friday, as more bound. Therefore quite slow to ski.
Risks
Wind intensity: No Wind (0 km/h)
Drift snow from yesterday. Were out and about on the south side up to 35 degrees and didn't see anything. No sliding snow mouths on the south side either. There were two small avalanches on the Steineberg in the steep eastern gully and the neighboring eastern slope, probably triggered spontaneously by a snow slab. However, the slope was not swept away, which is why I assume that the drift snow is rather small-scale. I was too far away for a usable picture.
Avalanche activity
Dry slab avalanche
Altitude: 1600 m
Overall impression
Dream day in the mountains with sunshine!

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!
