Glenshee (skiing conditions) 17th March 2013.

Ian and Brian at the bottom of the Butcharts Access Poma, listening to AC/DC blasting out of the K2 ski tents pa system! There was a little hil fog around early morning (fourth row of the car park  - the best position this year so far!).  
Every run was fence to fence and near perfect. Just needed the visisbility to improve...
Looking across to the Cairnwell with the clouds starting to break up and the wind easing off.
Slalom course looking good with a course being set up for some racing.
Carn Aosda run , the best I've seen it for a long time.
And the sun finally break through as we mess about in the Butcharts Coire area and fun park.
Over on Glas Moal it was getting busy as everyone had the same idea to get there for the sun.
Looking down the Glas Moal motorway. Great high level cruising! 
The main gully of Glas Maol.

Glenshee - skiing, 5th February 2012.


Top of the Tiger chair (Cairnwell), open at last!

The new Baddoch chairlift saves some time getting up to the Cairnwell Cafe.

Looking back across to the Cairnwell and the racetrack from the top of Butcharts Poma.


Caenlochan poma up to Coire Fionn.


Looking somewhere back towards the Spittal from the Caenlochan poma.

Trying to ski and film going down the gully at the bottom of Coire Fionn!
