Bright day with high cloud above tops and 50% sunshine, little to no wind
:: Snow Conditions & Info
All pistes in great order most fenced runs sking both sides, even lower runs like Yockies in full width. Back was open with limited patrol and softened reasonably in the sun. Traverse out holding on well with upper complete and lower has 6 feet walk at Pinball entry, Never got into Coire an Lochain today, might take a look Sunday !
Runs like the Goose were good for flat out terminal speed runs (upright) wide smooth and fast. Sidewinder widest I ever saw it !!

Blue sky, no wind. - The forecast afternoon clouds did not arrive. Perfect day. Jacket stayed in bag all day. Sun screen required. : )
:: Snow Conditions & Info
Crisp snow early doors, softening with traffic & sun according to aspect. Some areas turned to lovely Spring snow during the day. - Glas Maol, the Black gully line actually was easier skinning than the Red, because despite moguls on Black line, it also had more loose cover for making good turns. GM Poma queue well organised & not too long. Only real queue I found. Also skirted Garbh Coire, which looked good on several lines. But one large cornice, in pics.

Generally all runs in great shape. Pisting good as have come to expect this season. - Carn Aosda Tbar was running, and this accessed the north side over the back. 2mins carry over the summit opened a large expanse of untracked snow, and a short skin out to join one of the pistes to ski back down to bottom of lift. (Repeat as required!) That was my personal favourite of the day, so I did a few laps, and never saw a soul over the back, except the odd Mountain Hare.

Also slipped over to Loch Vrotachan, and found a number of wind lips & features. All good, nice skiing & a short skin to rejoin the pistes at Bunny Run.

As usual, the Cairnwell Racetracks were fast & reliable runs. And Tiger was a bit scrapey at top, becoming fine as you got into it.

Really great sport for all abilities & tastes at moment. Easy to keep moving al day, as much as I have legs for.
