Lots of snow fell last night down to sea level causing some disruption on the roads and great skiing in the hills! It has remained very cold and ice is forming well on the climbs. It will be hard to get anywhere for a few days and there will be some avalanche hazard from the new snow but it looks beautiful and if you choose your route carefully there will be some great climbing.
Self reliance is a fundamental principle of mountaineering. By participating we accept this and take responsibility for the decisions we make. These Conditions Reports are intended to help you make good decisions. They do not remove the need for you to make your own judgements when out in the hills.
