Significant Snowfalls

Tuesday, 20 January 2009

Plenty of snow still arriving in large amounts. Apparently Nevis Range are concerned that they have the wrong sort of snow! It's the material that their snow groomers are finding difficulty with. Too much powder makes grooming a problem and snow does not stick too well in cold windy conditions. Sales in snow-shoes are on the increase!

Tough conditions today in Glen Coe.

Stob Coire nan Lochan - Ordinary Route - Central Buttress today.

Climbers out on Central Grooves/Buttress area on Stob Coire nan Lochan today. Thanks to Tim Blakemore for these lovely shots. Tim is running his courses from my place this week.
