Cairngorm Mountain 1st March 2010

Amazing snow and skiing. We arrived at about 10am and got our selves sorted out. the road to the ski centre was open but the link road was shut. The snow on the sides of the road was way above the top of the car. The funicular was still well buried under snow but they were trying to dig it out. The tows up to the top station were not running as there was a risk of avalanche n the traverse. We headed for the Faicaill ridge poma and went down the run back to the tow. It was a bit icy so next time we went the other way. All in all a brilliant day. the Corie cas t bar was also open. We also had great fun on the day lodge poma – although it was a bit fierce – Roger fell off first go.
