:: Tour Route(s) or Location Skied/Ridden
Looking for a pleasant end of season Cairngorm day however found a cold low vis winter day. Skinned from Cairngorm Car Park to summit in mist, skied down Ciste Meridth mostly in mist, over to Ptarmigan and then back to summit thinking it might clear. Skied Coronation Wall in mixed vis with a few rocks under surface. There is a lot of snow above 900m with very wide cover.
:: Weather Conditions

Snow and hail showers. Still need cold weather gear.
:: Snow Conditions and Distrubtion

Pleasant fresh snow. Occasionally unsure if still or moving.
