:: Weather Conditions
A claggy and misty morning on the upper mountain with flat light and a cold northerly wind but the weather improved in the early afternoon with clear skies and sun by the end of the day. Freezing at all levels and -1C at car park.
:: Snow Conditions & Info
All open runs have an excellent cover of skier and machine packed snow with deep deposits of windblown softer snow and plenty of fresh turns still possible. An overnight light covering of snow had freshened up conditions and both the black and red Access runs to the car park were giving the excellent skiing as were the Main Basin, Happy Valley and the Wall. Thrombosis and all the middle and lower runs are full and wide. Spring Run and Etive Glades are still closed due to icy sections and Flypaper and East ridge due to considerable avalanche risk. Rannoch Glades just needs more snow in the right southerly or easterly direction.
