Snow condition

3 von 5 Sterne
20 cm fresh snow
Descent to valley (to 1000 m)
Descent through forest
Stone Contact avoidable

Very isolated, only sugared-over stones, otherwise very safe. Even on south-facing ski tours that have been snow-free for weeks, there are tracks again.

Snow quality

4 von 5 Sterne
Powder snow

Another 20 cm of the finest fresh snow overnight - enough on many slopes to cover the old tracks to such an extent that it was super easy to ski. Mostly snow up to the knee on the descent. Very fluffy & fast :-)

Risks

Much fresh snow
North-West

Wind intensity: Medium (20 – 40 km/h)

In a short, light section of forest at 35-40 degrees, the snowpack was already breaking up on a very small scale. In a north-facing gully, we could see that another freerider had released a board. Drift snow definitely plays a role here, depending on the slope and sometimes also on a small scale, the sinking depth was different.

Overall impression

Equal

Should stay that way for now. But from tomorrow it's back to Earn your Turn. I'm not really a big freeride fan, but even I found it very rewarding today :-)

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!
