The smile sums it up

Fantastic powder on the upper the Goose

Lower Goose was bumpy. maybe due to old snow underneath

Combat skiing lower down

Managed to ski from the top of summit Gully to almost the restaura

Mystery solved when I met Motatapu at the top of Easy Gully.

Good cover on the summit runs.

Wonder who made those neat tracks in Summit gully

Skied to the col before Aonach Beag

Looking to the Ben from the summit cairn

:: Snow Conditions & Info
Skinned from below the foot of the Goose on
snow that was soft powder and slightly wind packed higher up. Fine on skis but hard going on foot. After sinking deeply walking round the summit cairn of Aonach Mor to take photos I was glad to get back on skis.

Skied down to the col between Aonach Mor and Beag then returned by the same route.

Excellent cover over to col and on the summit runs and upper Goose, but below about tower 3 it gets sketchy.
Manage to get back to almost the restaurant on a diagonal from the Goose with a bit of help from the grass. !

Fantastic day in stunning surroundings
