Mixed Bag...











Varied conditions this week on Cairngorm. The week started damp and mild but turned back to winter yesterday with fresh snow, wind and cold conditions. The truf has refrozen, there is a little bit of riming/hoar high up and alot of verglass on the buttresses. The buttresses have been stripped back leaving early season conditions. Gullies are still in good condition.
I was working for Glenmore Lodge on a Learn to Lead course.
