This was the size of the queue just before lunch. At its height there were 4 lines of people but well organized and moved quickly.

Looking up to the gun barrel from the M1, great soft fresh snow

Blue sky and little wind : ) Cas

This is the top of the elephant fence on the white lady, its getting deep!

Wind dropped off fairly early on allowing the top bowl to open as well as the M1, Cas, Car park and Ridge and to top it all out came the sun. Nice day hovering around freezing level on most of the mountain keeping the snow fresh
:: Snow Conditions & Info
All runs are now complete, it just needs some pistie beastie work in the ciste area to get it open. The lower slopes were a bit icy after some freeze thaw cycles but from 1/3 up the snow is excellent. White lady and Cas is as good as it gets. My vote for best run is the Cas, top to bottom fresh dry snow. Best to keep away from the lower ridge, a bit clattery on the skis.
