From the Hidden Valley car park in Glen Coe to the top of the climber's gulley to the North and slightly West of the peak of Stob Coire nan Lochan. Descended the gulley and climbed it again, continuing in a traverse behind the peak to the bealach and climbing Bidean nam Bian. Descended the broad north east face directly, dropping 2,000 feet down into the Hidden Valley. Climbed Lochan again and skied the north face on line to East of peak. Followed the valley until the snow ran out.

Snow was 1 hour walk from car.

Impeccable. Freezing at 2,500 feet.

High up the snow was smoothe and hard with some grip. There was some breakable crust lower down and it became heavier towards the snow line.
