Flight was covered in wind blown lips, with a few scoured areas.

You could pick your way to the bottom of the Quad Chair... just

The Goose was full width, although the gully hasn't completely filled in yet.

:: Weather Conditions
Cloudy above 3500ft, with the wind picking up at times. However, no where near as bad as forecasted. Ended up having to strip off a few layers pretty early on in the day.
:: Snow Conditions & Info
Plenty of windblown snow waiting to be tracked out. As the day went on the snow became heavier and wetter, but there was still plenty of places left untracked. Some of the best riding was down Flight, with windblown lips just waiting to be popped off.

Hats off to Nevis Range. Even though you could access the entire hill with the lifts available, they still offered discounted prices on full area passes. That's the kind of gesture that will bring folk back in their droves. It's been a long time since I've had to queue for 15mins to get the gondola back down, yet you never had to queue for more than a few minutes at the tows.
