:: Tour Route(s) or Location Skied/Ridden
Braeriach from Glen Einich. Cycled in from Whitewell as far as the major ford of Beanaidh Bheag. Followed the stalkers path until circa 580m where on the south side of the burn the snow was continuous all the way into Coire Beanaidh. From there up to the col and then to the summit. From the summit skied west before heading straight down the brilliant burn line which drops straight back into Glen Einich at Grid reference 934004

Freezing level circa 950m, Cloud on the summit made for interesting navigation
