Report
:: Tour Route(s) or Location Skied/Ridden
Geal-charn and A Mharconaich from Balsporram Cottages, Drumochter on Thursday evening and Friday. There was quite a bit of carrying but plenty ambience. Camped near col between the two hills with good views west. I used Ruffwear dog panniers for the first time and they worked well. For a day tour the snow looked more complete on Sgairneach Mhor where there are runs NW from the summit and probably south as well. If someone skies there could you post some pics?
