To the March burn, a shuftie about the Plateau then along the Northern Corries rim to the Ski Center.

Clear but gusty in exposed areas. Macdui shrouded in cloud. It was cold enough to freeze the water bottle and a banana inside my sack.

Variable, thin, icy sections on the way up. Bands of pow in-between crusty, hard slabs on the Plateau. On quite a lot of the way up I just walked, picking a way between the rocks.
