Report
:: Tour Route(s) or Location Skied/Ridden
Drumochter Hills. A' Mharconaich (975m). Ascended NE ridge from Balsporan Cottages. We met 3 members of the Edinburgh Ski Touring Club at the top. From summit descended slopes of NW and then northerly aspects and traversed out along the Allt Coire Fhair.
:: Weather Conditions
Dry, no wind, overcast but cloud rising above summit with a little sun breaking through occasionally.
:: Snow Conditions and Distrubtion
Reasonable snow cover, skis in/off at railway. Harder wind blown snow higher up, descended though some good spring slow with good turns. Softer, slushier snow on ski out and lower elevations. Some heather hopping on the way out.

Di, Mark and Andrea
