Beinn Heasgarnich from top of hill track between Glen Lochay and Glen Lyon. Ascent by 909m hill. Descent by Coire Ban Mor.
:: Weather Conditions
Generally good visibility (needed to take a good line through the moraines), in and around freezing all day.
:: Snow Conditions and Distrubtion
The hill road was drivable with a Discovery. Enough snow to ski from the road with some to spare. Route choice influenced by the many burns and lochans. Soft fresh windblown snow on upper slopes. Ridges covered.
:: Skiers/Riders
