CAIRNGORMS, GLORIOUS WINTER CONDITIONS

The team enjoying the Fiacaill Ridge
Ready to go & sun breaking through
Excellent hard snow
Coire an t-sneachda looking very white
At the top!
Coire an Lochain
Quiet on the ridge today
Droopy cornices
Wind scoured slopes

Regular and valued clients Katherine, Rhys & Chris are back up for their regular two days of winter fun in the mountains. The last couple of seasons they have had bad weather with cloud, wind or high temperatures, or all three! But today they hit it lucky as we had a superb day. Low temperatures, light winds, excellent snow conditions and lovely sunny spells in the afternoon with glorious views. We had a fun day on the Fiacaill Ridge. Quiet here today. We got to the top and the sun broke through with blue skies and great views. Wind scoured slopes on Cairn Lochan made for superb walking. A great day to be out and yet another big contrast in days, 24 hours ago it was very different! Top day.
