Report
:: Tour Route(s) or Location Skied/Ridden
Dundreich, from the Scotch Pine Tea Room car park in Harcus (nr. Eddleston) on the A 703 Edinburgh?Peebles Road. Skins on at the car, ski up road to Boreland Farm, then rough line of track to summit. Return over Milky Law.
:: Weather Conditions
Clear blue ski until 14: 00 then dark high cloud with a very few snow flakes.
:: Snow Conditions and Distrubtion
Fresh fluffy powder lower down but surprisingly crusty higher up above earlier inversions where the sun and wind have hardened the snow a bit. Final steepish descent from Milky Law in wonderful deep snow.
:: Skiers/Riders
