Dusting of snow here this morning, soon disappeared. Looks good, unfortunately not virgin tracks There is no such thing as bad weather, only the wrong clothes.

Cheers - yes, this has, according to Hamish McInnes, been our snowiest winter that he can remember (and that goes back a long way). I knew Glenshee has had it good/bad as I posted this image of one of the drag lifts elsewhere on the forum a few weeks ago, and gather snow has continued to fall since.
Hope it lasts for a couple more weeks - I have some meetings in Perth and hope to get up for an afternoon on the slopes on one of the days.

Those are actually my tracks. I got almost to the top but the drift was about 4 feet deep and on a very steep incline. I have a very road biased winter tyre fitted so there was no chance I was getting through it.

Thanks. It's hard to take a bad photo up there, especially when it's snowy.
