Usually I would shoot you down but next week does not look great at all.. still plenty time.
I'm always ready to be shot down by you if I am wrong, but I seldom am....... It's not easy being perfect :mrgreen:
That wouldnt be nice.
We had 120kmh winds at the top in Serre Che early this month, some lifts were shut for a couple of days, but when we did manage to get to the top, it was quite unpleasant and almost impossible to ski!

Lovely photos Pablo,
I'm glad you had a good time. I've walked up part of Ben Nevis in the summer, but never skied in Scotland.

Very windy on Cairngorm this afternoon (50-55 mph) but all of the runs above the half-way station are in excellent condition. The top Cas car park was just about full by 11am but it was still reasonably quiet on the slopes.
This week I aaaaarv been mostly........ skiing

Well guys, that's it. Game over probably after this weekend (for Glencoe anyways).
I have had 15 or so Scottish skiing days this season all of which have been bloody excellent.
Hopefully next year delivers on the snow front.. this time round it was a bit wet.
Over and out.
Forecast for Saturday 4th April - Overnight rain expected to clear by early morning leaving a fine day with sunny intervals. 20-30mph NW winds.
Runs: Main Basin has good cover of spring snow. Happy Valley is sad unfortunately at the narrows. Spring Run also has good cover down to the top of the Cliffhanger Chair although top traverse is now broken. Rannoch Glades remains skiable but entry is a bit tricky. The Wall also remains skiable but means at walk back to the bottom of the cliffy. NO BEGINNER AREAS.
Argo Taxi will be running across the Plateau (until it Conks Out!!!!!)
ENJOY IT WHILE YOU CAN ADULT TICKETS £20 - JUNIOR TICKETS £15
