Very poor visibility on Aonach Mor plateau … when I was there

1st December 2025

Today the freezing level hovered around 1150m, but there were icy patches above 650m. This gave variable conditions underfoot with icy patches, breakable crust and hard snow. Very poor visibility when I was up high limited photography opportunities.

Snowfall above around 900m is expected overnight and in the morning leading to new unstable windslab being deposited in wind-sheltered areas, mainly on North-West through North to East aspects.
