Improved views!
17th February 2025
It was a much less windier day than yesterday which fortunately allowed for a better look at the higher elevations.
In general the snow cover is sparse and shallow on many aspects. However, there remains Isolated shallow accumulations of unstable windslab on West to North aspects above 900 metres (see report for more detail).

(Above) Looking up the goose ski run on Aonach Mor. The textured snow shows windslab which has been eroded and redistributed by the wind.
