Drifting

18th February 2016

The summit winds are currently the perfect strength for transporting snow. This has ben the case for 2 days now. Consequently there are fairly widespread accumulations of fresh, unstable and unconsolidated windslab in many sheltered locations. Recent avalanche debris noted below many of the routes on Aonach Mor.
