Report
:: Tour Route(s) or Location Skied/Ridden
Carn a Claise and Carn nan Turc. Skied in anticlockwise direction with fine finish sking NE gully
:: Weather Conditions
Some cloud on the peaks but bright and sunny for a lot of the time
:: Snow Conditions and Distrubtion
Fantastic! Hard and solid on the tops and a little scoured but the cover is amazing. Above 800 meters there is full and virtually unbroken cover. The ski down the NE gulley is wide and as the day warmed up was softening nicely. There is plenty of leads to the valley floor and after crossing the road and putting the skis on we did not take them off until returned to the car.
