Report
After a frustrating weekend of high winds, things were a good deal calmer on Monday morning allowing Glencoe to open to the top with plenty of windblown fresh to explore.
Tuesday is set to be the best weather day of the week under a ridge of high pressure which will suppress the remaining showers overnight to give a fine and bright start to Tuesday.
All upper runs bar Etive Glades (not catching snow due to wind direction) were seeing action with the Main Basin and the Spring Run seeing the most. Speak to patrol for the latest on the East Ridge and Flypaper.
Mid mountain there is a route to almost the Plateau Cafe, via Mugs Alley, round by the top of the Rannoch Chair onto Old Mugs Alley. People were getting to the Cliffy via the ski club hut, but not much new snow actually stuck that side. Better to keep high on the bank to the bottom of the Coire Pollach Tow and you end up on the track near the snow factory. Much better depth of snow this way.
Various Plateau runs can be used to get most of the way to the Access Chair as of close of play on Monday.
