awsome bluebird day! was hard to believe i was in scotland, no wind at all!

there was too much snow for the centre to handle, joke, only 3 lifts open in the morning. No funicular railway either?? 5 days to dig the place out, come on guys! they were blasting the mountain during the afternoon, apparently the boys were up on the mountain at 6 o'clock in the morning but didn't blast around that time as they were waiting for a film crew?!! beyond a joke! after the blasting finished we hiked up to the cairngorm peak and descended down the corie cas, really really nice, so fast and epic snow. the powder was really heavy to the east of the white lady but still worth a bash. if the cairngorms is fully open, best area in scotland. especially with the conditions as they are now.

Absolute Bluebird day. Still, bright sunshine and cold. Freezing level at carpark. You could not have better weather for skiing. Got bitterly cold out of the sun around 3pm.

Plateau and Mugs Alley Pisted to perfection, great to see and ideal for learner to intermediate skiers. Etive Glades was nice until Piste Basher reduced it to mush. Top of Happy Valley well groomed. Death cookies left in the middle of Main Basin, not good practice in this day and age, would have been better if they had left it alone. Rannoch glades, nice not groomed as well as the Spring run. Possible to ski to carpark, but watch out for the rocks.
