Lower Spring run wide and deep but the plateau is thin despite the recent snow

Angry clouds over Ben Nevis from the Spring run.

Last run of the day on the eastern edge of the plateau with the flypaper in the background.

:: Weather Conditions
Cold north wind to start. Mainly cloudy with a few sunny spells in the morning. The sun broke through in the afternoon warming things up considerably.
:: Snow Conditions & Info
The pisted main basin was great from first thing. Aside from the groomed areas it was lumpy and crusty to start with - tracked new snow half melted then crusted over....interesting. Untracked areas were generally nice but concealed rocks, holes, puddles and peat, dependant on where you were. The path to the Spring run is snow covered again but lumpy due to being foot packed. Below the plateau you can patch hop about half way down out to the east, then walk 20mins.
