:: Tour Route(s) or Location Skied/Ridden
Tom Buidhe from Glenshee. From footbridge near road 2kms north of ski centre carried skis to 600 metres and then skinned up hard pack neve just east of Sron na Gaoithe. Walked up the flat ridge to more snow around the rim of Garbh-choire and another walk to the lower slopes of Cairn of Claise. C of C was patchy so contoured around to the east on great snow all the way to Tom Buidhe. Great views in every direction. Good run down from Tom Buidhe and followed our tracks back. The final run down the previously hard packed neve of Sron na Gaoithe was now on soft spring snow - a great end to the day.
:: Weather Conditions
Sunny and warm. Didn't need gloves.
:: Snow Conditions and Distrubtion
Intermittent cover lower down but great snow east of Cairn of Claise
