Glencoe, Sunday 1st April 2007

No April fool today - beautiful weather persists all day.
Clear skys once again lead to lovely spring conditions. A firm pack with corn snow was available in the Main Basin. Flypaper and Spring Run were open but the walk out put me off. Good fun messing about in spring conditions. The Glencoe park looks like its getting there too, The unbroken sunshine and warm temperatures had some folk skiing in shorts and T-shirts, incredible.
Drove up on Sunday morning having got the train from Glasgow to Cardross. Drive up was as spectacular as ever. Deep blue skies and snow scattered mountains. Went up on my own as all others couldn't make it or woosed out somehow. I've got to make the most of it since this is only my second shredding day in Scotland this season. Very poor, still more than many others I know.
