Report
:: Tour Route(s) or Location Skied/Ridden
Rubers Law. Just to the south of Denholm, about 5kms east of Hawick. Northern approach route from Denholm village.
:: Weather Conditions
Sunny but on the edge of the snow showers with the odd one or two coming over. It is dumping further east - Cheviots looked like they are taking big hit
:: Snow Conditions and Distrubtion
Mixed. Wind crust near the summits but powder on west facing slopes and gulleys. Fields on the approach/descent are perfect light dry powder...mmm
Skis on from village all the way, apart from the odd fence. Deep cover of over 1 foot with big drifts higher up
