After a thaw some snow eventually started falling. It's been all over UK, apart from West of Scotland. Really once again only the top was really worth riding. Main Basin had soft in the middle but ice and rocks were a constant threat. Skiers right of the top tow had some nice wind packed powder. But again rocks would bite you if you we're not careful.
Not too cold and winds were light. Probably why the clouds hung about. Was supposed to have 80% chance of sun but spent all day In cloud.
Still did lots of runs and finished with last lift.
Looking forward to more snow though.

Glencoe Sunday 6th January 2013
Warm wind and rain threatening to destroy all snowpack. Gad to get up. Started out nice on the drive up, however rain was incessant once in the hill. Main basin was all that was left and was icy and scoured. Made the most of it. But, all snow sports now suspended until further snowfall.

Happy New Year. Threatened to be windy yet again, but once on the hill quite sheltered. Turned out quite a nice day!
Bain basin soft and fluffy. Best up top. Quite a lot of snow loss. Needs topping up. Very warm and the wind and rain don't help.
