Meall a Bhuachaille. Walked about half way up then skinned the rest from Glenmore. Skied down the SW face.

Sun, snow showers, no wind in the forest but very strong NE at the summit where the mist came and went.

Unconsolidated heavy snow until the upper slopes where it was wind scalloped powder drifting in the wind.
Good skiing high up although unfortunately as I was heading down the visibility closed in. Lower down I could have done with wider skis as despite sitting back it was hard not to sink.
Should be better once it consolidates and freezes.
