Toreck ski tour, Kleinwalsertal, 2017-01-06
What Toreck is like when there isn't enough snow; just after the first 55-75 cm of fresh snow in January. Beautiful, and fabulous to ski in the lower section with lots of snow all the way down. Further up, a gnarly labyrinth of dwarf mountainpine (Ge: Latschenfelder) with some gentle bush climbing on the way towards Toreck summit. At the waymark (1829) we could get a better look at the last stretch to the summit: A sea of mountainpine before the final slopes. Thus we decided to stop here, saving the summit to another day when snow levels have improved. A great day out nonetheless!
