:: Snow Conditions & Info
Despite the sun beating down the snow did not soften off piste. On piste the base was grippy with soft snow.
The best run I found was the M1, absolutely lovely, but there is that much to ski on the mountain that I didn't get round everywhere in the afternoon so other areas could have been as good.
The Lady and M1 side track had less soft snow but were still fun and small bumps are appearing on the lady. The top basin was great and the Ciste gully good till the lower part where it was pretty solid.
I went over to Laogh Beag. It was an icy traverse and I went round the Strathnethy side of the tor at the top of Laogh Mor where I discovered gigantic frozen sastrugi. The snow only softened slightly at about 660m on Laogh Beag and than gave good skiing.
A great afternoon in stunning weather but on piste was definitely better than off.
