Poster: A snowHead
|
Afternoon,
So , I was due to go to the Dolomites on the 9/1 for a week of couloirs and powder.I have just received a,not unexpected, e-mail from the guide on the current conditions.
Powder and couloirs won't be on the agenda.
Basically we are flying into Innsbruck and are quite happy to drive as far as it takes to find some good snow.
The trip was going to be lift assisted touring using skins to access good lines with maybe a hut or 2 thrown into the mix.
Given current conditions and the weather outlook all suggestions gratefully received.
cheers,Bob

@bobhitch, Good luck with your hunt, but I suspect that anyone who can predict powder conditions in any European resort in a weeks time will want to keep it to themselves

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Central/Eastern Austria (Salzburg, Oberösterreich). Just got ~40cm last week, look to be in the firing line this week too. Western Aus (Arlberg) may get slightly more this week but no base... I'd wait to see how this week shapes up and make a decision after the weekend though.

Austria is looking like it will get the best of the predicted snow in the next week. Nothing spectacular though. Maybe a short drive up the valley to St Anton, Lech etc might be on the cards? Good luck!
