Powder downhill in Davos

Andermatt is known for its cool skiing and freeriding. It's finally snowing again on Thursday & Friday and Andermatt has always had some snow from the south! The freetouring options from the Gemsstock are really great. We can start high up here and enjoy the day with a first descent. We'll then look for cool peaks and beautiful slopes in around 2 ascents and then zoom down. We'll make around 800 metres of ascent and 2500 metres of descent.
