Snow quality
Overall impression
Snow condition
Theoretically enough snow, but not in practice because it's very packed. Where there are usually deep hollows, you can now traverse at a height, but several ribs etc. have been blown off again. Stone contact in the terrain cannot be ruled out
Snow quality
wind-pressed, below approx. 2300m wet from the rain and on top a non-load-bearing ice crust
Risks
Numerous snow slabs, including large ones, came off during the blasting. I can't say whether there were also spontaneous avalanches. But I think it was more likely that everything was blown up.
Overall impression
the good start to the season has been ruined by rain and snow. What a pity.

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!
