:: Weather Conditions
Perfect. - Blue sky, cold dry snow, not a breath of wind to spoil it. - Perfect. (was -10c at car by end of day...we hung about till light was gone)
:: Snow Conditions & Info
Sunnyside, Butcharts, Carn Aosda & Cairnwell runs open at start of day. - Cluny & Tom Dearg in afternoon.
Mostly fine dry packed powder snow, with excellent grip & stability. Range of off piste at the fringes, including Carn Aosda. Occasional scraped icy patch, but nothing major.
A truly outstanding day of blue skies and lovely snow. When Cluny opened, it was the most lovely packed powder snow. A pleasure to glide along and roll with the wee natural bumps.
Floodlight skiing on Claybokie after dark. - We got last lift up & walked to summit of CarnAosda, before making a twilight descent. - Just wonderful.
Early in the day I closed my eyes...and all I could hear was laughter and joy. - Days like this linger for ever.
