Skitouren in den Tuxer Alpen

Overall impression
Snow condition
Very good snow conditions. Ground contact should be extremely rare. The only thing missing for the fourth star is a little more snow in the forest and a little more on ridges and crests, which are very blown away.
Snow quality
Changeable but mostly good. Powder with lots of surface frost on it is common, especially on wind-protected slopes. Otherwise there is a lot of wind slush. The rain crust can also be found on the surface, especially in blown-off areas, otherwise you can only get through to it again below approx. 1900m.
Risks
Also noticeably more relaxed again, see LLB. The large amount of surface frost will be critical the next time it snows, otherwise there are still plenty of sliding snow slides.
Overall impression
Great weather, decent snow and the crowds were limited - everyone loves a weekend like this!

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!
