A calm and sunny day.
30th March 2016
It was another cold start and a generally bright day on the hill.
There was a blanket of snow on most aspects, with a lot of surface hoar which didn’t last to long rising freezing levels and strong sun.
While the main Cairngorms seemed cloudy, we enjoyed the sun on The White Mounth.
There are many ski touring options, particularly if you ski out a now closed Glenshee Ski Area (please remember machines are operating onsite). Unfortunately they have lost lower snow.
The plateau areas are still loaded and you can ski down/from 700 metres. Some areas are fairly icy but many are have thin unconsolidated snow on a firm base.
