Clear with sunny intervals at first, but clouded over at lunchtime. Then the wind got up and the fog descended. Driving snow at the top, driving rain in the car park by afternoon.
:: Snow Conditions & Info
Some very nice wind packed powder in the main basin (when you could see it) and the top of Dark Side. Most runs good cover except for Etive Glades which was unusually thin. The best snow wasn't always in the usual places. The eastern edge of the plateau and below was covered in little wind ridges. Not so easy to ski on in flat light or mist ! All car park runs easily skiable right to the bottom - no peaty patches or exposed rocks really, but the lower slopes degenerated from windblown powdery snow to heavy wet porridge as the temperature went up and the rain came on in the afternoon. Last run down was a bit more challenging that first car park run in the morning.

sunny start, then high level cloud wit no precipitation, calm first thing but the breeze picked up a little. I left at 1330.
:: Snow Conditions & Info
Most of the cafe side run were open except for the Harrier, the pisted areas were very good with only an odd patch of ice/wind scour at the top. Some powder in-between the runs had been carved by the early crowd. Buzzard side wasn't open at all. Nice and quiet, no queues.
