+3 Deg C in carkpark. Cold wind up on slopes esp near top at times. Pea soup from rescue shed up, with poor visibility. OK on lower slopes. Light snow when we left
:: Snow Conditions & Info
Snow better than I expect - soft in places, spring-like in places. Good on Happy Valley and the Wall - nice soft snow. However thin in some places e.g. top of Mugs Alley/Bunny run.
Top of Main Basin rocky so didn't venture in. I am sure the snow once you get in is nice - but we couldn't see it!
Rankin's Return in really good shape until the last part near the access chair. Good run for the way home!
Got to say I am surprised how good the cover is across Mugs Alley and Coire Pollach is. It's still pretty much ski anywhere with a few thin patches. Good work on the fence layouts!

Overcast and snow in the afternoon with whiteout conditions from top of Cliffy upwards. Moderate winds with some stronger gusts
:: Snow Conditions & Info
Most slopes icy until early afternoon when they softened up. Best run was Happy Valley which had quite nice soft snow although you couldn't see. There has been a slight thaw since last weekend on most slopes but affecting conditions by much. Could be freshies tomorrow if the hill isn't stormbound from the strong to gale force winds. Good sliding on offer
