Report
:: Tour Route(s) or Location Skied/Ridden
Drumochter. Left path and skinned up west ridge of Beinn Udlamain, skied down east ridge and into Coire Dhomhain to about 2400ft where the snow became very patchy and thin. (see attached map route)
:: Weather Conditions
A bit of everything, blizzards, broken cloud northerly winds about 40mph. FL 1500ft.
:: Snow Conditions and Distrubtion
Some nice patches of fresh powder on the south facing slopes of Beinn Udlamain but a lot of it was blown away leaving hard grippy snow beneath. Either were fine for skiing on but the poor visibilty meant you didn't know what you were skiing on till you were on top it.
