Nevis Range

The conditions for today looked much better in the West, so despite staying in Aviemore last night, I decided that it was worth the drive back to Aanoch Mor. The sky was grey, but the upper runs were in really good condition. I did make the mistake of trying to ski from the restaurant to the Quad and made a few imprints on my bases :(

The recent snow was obvious on the Ben (shown below) and there weren't too many people trying to climb the gullies.


There was little wind up top, and I did briefly consider walking to the summit from the top tow, but decided against it. There were a few good looking cornices around, looking like they could go at some point soon.


After a grey day on the slopes, as I got the gondola down the sun came out. Not wanting to miss the opportunity to take a few snaps, I headed round to Corpach to get a good view of the Ben from a different angle to Aanoch Mor!
