An impressive new flag

Lower Lady , little bumps of soft spring snow

Firm snow that softened as the day went progressed on the Upper Lady.

East lady was in great condition with smooth spring snow

Lady and Cas from the Fiacaill Ridge poma

Cas and Fiacaill area

Fiacaill traverse. The boarder cross and fun park were popular

Excellent cover on the Fairway, but due to the wind the top tows were not running so the area below the M2 start was not being skied.

:: Weather Conditions
Strong west wind kept the top tows off. Temperature was probably around freezing about top station level. In the morning it was clear but by afternoon the upper mountain had a bit of mist. Occassional showers of snow, hail, rain.
:: Snow Conditions & Info
There's still great cover. A few bare patches on the lower slopes but the runs are skiable and still good for learning on if the top tows are off due to wind as they were today.
Lady, East Lady, Cas, M1 area, Fiacaill and M2 all great with spring snow that softened as the day progressed.
The Ciste and Aonach would have been good had the wind allowed the West Wall poma to run. Laogh Mor I believe was good when it softened but I didn't get a chance to head that way. Hopefully tomorrow.
