Report
Sadly by the time you are reading this, the information will be irrelevant so far as lift served snowsports is concerned!
All uplift operations are suspended at present following the announcement this afternoon that mainland Scotland will move from Level 4 restrictions to a full lockdown.
If you are planning to travel to Glencoe (or one of the other ski areas) for touring, keep in mind that terrain is now unpatrolled and unmanaged with no ski patrol on site. Also please beaware of machines operating as some mountain operations will continue so the snowsports areas are in a posistion to re-open uplift when permitted.
Level 4 travel restrictions remain in force and you must not use the ski area base to start mountain activities unless you live in Highland or Argyll & Bute - but please be aware that as non lift served touring can be undertaken away from the developed snowsports areas you may be asked to go somewhere closer to home if you are travelling a significant distance.
Another couple of fine days, some snow on Thursday, then another couple of fine days looks likely before potentially a new polar trough drops into situ over Highland Scotland. At this point, a stormy but snowy january that sets up the cover for the following 4 months and a repeat of spring 2020 weather would do nicely!
