:: Weather Conditions
Perfect - blue sky and no wind. well below freezing at all levels, but with no wind and plenty of sun didn't feel it. -8 when I got back to the car at 16: 30.
:: Snow Conditions & Info
Got one of the last few spots in the first bit of the main car park at about 10: 30am. Queues weren't too bad considering the number of people there (most of whom behaved themselves apart from the infamous "queue jumping woman" of the Carn Aosda tow - an incident which inspired a superb piece of artwork from the lift crew).
Snow was great for the time of year, but could do with another good dump this week to top it up and consolidate. The off piste looked nice, but was baseless so took a few rock induced somersaults.
Hopefully they'll manage to get some more lifts opened up as it was quite restricted on uplift (as previous posters have already covered). Cover looked good on Meall Odhar & was being pisted, but no uplift access yet.
