Regions: Glacier.
It's a mixed bag of riding out there, but with a discerning eye, one can find some soft turns.
Be prepared for some crunchy tree-bombs, tip-catching crust, or firm windslab as you search for the softness.

Snowpack Summary
A light dusting is covering up widespread Surface Hoar (8mm in valley bottom, 2-3mm near ridge crests). Hard windslabs are prevalent in the Alpine, especially on W-facing or exposed terrain. Sun and warm temps formed a crust on solar slopes in the Alpine, and on all aspects below 1650m. The Jan 29 SH layer, buried 50-80cm, seems to be rounding.
