Hard frost tonight
Hi Alan Please find attached a few pics from our travels this past week – based in Glencoe and Aviemore. Thursday was a superb clear sunny day - we climbed Stob Coire nan Lochain from the Lost Valley – fabulous views. We also saw a “large-format” oil painter at work just down from the Glen Etive road turning (that is dedication for you)! Today we have been up on the Cairngorm Plateau – lots of people around – ski tourers, snow boarders, kite-boarders, climbers and walkers – all having a great time. There is an incredible amount of snow – almost no evidence of boulders on the plateau area at all. A large party were doing a route on Fiacaill Buttress, and we saw one intrepid individual ski down the headwall of Coire an t-Sneachda ! If readers want to see the Cairngorms at their very best, now would be a good time to visit. Cheers Roy Thanks Roy. Fiacaill Buttress.  Lost Valley crags - Glen Coe.  Lost Valley - Glen Coe Tonight we have a very hard frost at sea level in Fort William and the conditions must be very good on Ben Nevis I would guess.
