 Not quite as much snow as glenmore but not bad!

:: Tour Route(s) or Location Skied/Ridden
Glentress forest. Bottom car park up to Buzzards Nest via combination of walkers & bike trails and then up through free ride area and along the forestry road to the east completing a circular route back down via the ponds.
Forestry roads had been snowploughed... a bit over zealously in parts removing all the snow and some of the road surface.
:: Weather Conditions
Nice day. Cold, generally sunny with occassional snow flurries. -6 all day in car park. No wind.
:: Snow Conditions and Distrubtion
At least a foot in the bottom, nearer two feet at 400m. Cold powdery snow. A couple of groups of bikers out but confined to the ploughed forestry roads, just too deep elsewhere.
:: Skiers/Riders
