Aonach Mor, towards Aonach Beag, dropping down under north face, noting the tracks made on Saturday of 2 skiers as reported by Hiilly, up eastish face of Aonach Beag to arrete 10m in elevation below the peak, back down on ski and across to Stob an Cul Choir, excellent skiing down to lower Easy Gulley Lochan, usual walk out to mid station. Bubble long since stopped, so down on foot alongside the cycle track. Back to car before dark.

Perfect
:: Snow Conditions and Distrubtion
Too soggy, with surface snow highly unstable. Unsettling. Had to manage the sloughing.

From the top of the summit button tow over to the summit of Aonach Beag
:: Weather Conditions
Brilliant.
No wind, sunshine with initially mist mostly below the level I was at. Temperature probably around 6C
:: Snow Conditions and Distrubtion
The cover was fairly good to Aonach Mor, then it was broken until the run down to the pass over to Aonach Beag.

Needed to cary the skis up the first part of Aonach Beag then could skin to the summit.

The ski down was great on lovely spring snow.

Summit Gully Aonach Mor from the Nevis Range gondola. 35 min walk to snow then ski to bottom of Summit Poma.
:: Weather Conditions
Cloud cover until 1pm. Delightful sunshine in coire below run.
:: Snow Conditions and Distrubtion
The only snow for ascent is in upper Goose Gully. One inch of soft snow on top of neve. Secure due to recent overnight freezing. Continuous snow down to two lochans (900M). Snow feels like it will still be there next weekend.
