Superb Meall Odhar.

Braemar Extreme Puppywalkers looking for a nice line home. : )

Another tourer skinning Cluny for home.

In Fionn Choire, bit wind glazed but still good sport.

:: Weather Conditions
Blue sky & light winds mostly. Freezing at carpark level most of day, was -2C at 4pm on leaving hill.
:: Snow Conditions & Info
Good cover from recent days. Better base than expected. Some refrozen & wind glazed snow, with wind blown powder on lee slopes & recesses. - Sunnyside easily skiable to carpark.

Route: Up south end of Sunnyside, across to Meall Odhar tow lines, up beside tow lines & over into Fionn Choire, back out of Fionn, partway down Home Run then peel left through fence into runs down Meall Odhar. Skin up Cluny run to Sunny Chair & down to road. - Skis on entire circuit.

Saw 1/2-dozen tourers, spoke to 4 of them in total where we passed. My best run was west off Meall Odhar, mostly powder on firm base there, best in the wee hollows of that slope. - Big smile.

Miles of new fencing very obvious. Hope it gets buried! - Fine way to spend an afternoon.

Saw some in Ghlas Choire, and wished I'd been up in morning with time to go there. Well done them. : )
