Looking down into the top bowls.

Ciste Fairway, the sno is a bit hard here but still a nice ski.

Ciste load area.

WL and zigzags from the Fiacaill ridge, poor cover and not nice to ski on.

Middle and lower areas, brown frozen hard and stony.

Side Slope, good cover but clattery to ski on the hard surface, A good way down at the end of the day. Much better than trying to ski burnside.

:: Weather Conditions
Below freezing at all level, over cast with strong winds which quickly abated and the skies cleared. Late afternoon light snow shower blew through with weak sunshine.
:: Snow Conditions & Info
Runs open to mid station only. Surface hard from top down Cas. Zigzags were sugar, brown and stony. Upper Ptarmigan bowl gave good skiing with wide cover, soft at top but harder in Ciste. The machines had broken the surface up improving the texture. Skiing to bottom station is possible via the Fiacaill , side slope and the ridge poma at the bottom but not recommended for the faint heated. Very good areas for beginners at the top.
