Good snow conditions at the moment. We are having a spell of clear sunny weather at present so it does get a bit soft later in the day but it is very cold overnight so nice and crisp in the morning.
Thanks very much
Been consistent snowfall through the season?

Pretty consistent. Some regular dumps in January, a bit of a mini-melt mid Feb but a few good top ups since then. Clear sunny weather forecast for the rest of this week but there might be a bit more snow early next week.
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Teaching today, but as a quick update, Piste conditions are excellent, off-piste not so good. Very crowded but expecting things to ease off next week. Locals all warning to book early for the 8/9/10th due to the additional night slalom on the 9th.Lots of places avaiable for weeks of 19th and 26th March (Kids ski free from 19th) so come and enjoy a late season break.
Then you can post your own questions or snow reports...

@holidayloverxx, i could not get buy in from the kids to watch the slalom race but thanks for the heads up anyway.
Anyone out in Flachau now? If i took trainers with me would i be able to run on the roads around town or is there still snow/ice around on the main pathways?
After all it is free

@o11y, As of today, yes you can run. The other walking trails may require a decent cross country sole.

Seconded about the pistes being in amazing condition. Real hero snow with crisp low temps. There is still light fluffy stuff to be had for tourers but not close to the resorts until the next dump.
And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

Arriving in Zauch on Sat… I’ll send some snow in advance and bring some with me… thank god for trees!
So if you're just off somewhere snowy come back and post a snow report of your own and we'll all love you very much

Snow and scraped hard pack today viz down to 30 yds - good to be back
Seems quite a marked difference in conditions vs the photos on arrival versus these ones? Is this a different area?
We had a great time in Zauchensee this year. Keen to return next year, but Feb half term clashes with all the big holidays (Fasching, Germany, Netherlands etc) so wondering whether to go for 1st April for a week instead to avoid the queues - hence trying to get a feel on snow conditions in April!

@Pippo9, yes those are wagrain and Flachau - spring hasn’t reached Z yet- snow good still - soft below 1200m say

Light rain in Zauch today and gloomy. Firm slush below 1600, good snow above so we stayed around Zauchensee. At 1350m can see the Saharan sand from a few weeks ago showing through. Not met any ice yet and not going to freeze over night … planning a slush surf around ski Amade… any recommendations? (Nb already got a big no on the Krapfelalm!)

Last day for us - low cloud and slush from the start, at least no hard pistes an the slush stayed firm - beautiful one the sun came out.
The Saharan snow colours the landscape
Great week

Well folks, that's a wrap for this season in Flachau at least. Great "Last Lift Day" ski with the Boss. Super lunch of Hirsh Carppacio at the #Auhofalm and a nice cold Weiss Beer to wash it down. For those who insist that you have to go high at Easter, I remind you that Aspect is just as important and when you have North facing slopes like we do, then there's nothing better than smashing them out at this time of year. We have Easter Week 8-15 Apr 23 available! Here's some images from today. Busy out https://imgur.com/a/HtvFFSU
