Most Terrain has Good Cover.

4

Mainly overcast with sunny spells and snow showers getting heavier and more persistant as the day went on.

Good cover across most of the mountain with a few thin and narrow patches. Best run was the White Lady/M1. Terrain park was open but some rails/boxes needed digging out. At the end of the day some people were heading down the lower slopes and home road. It was better to head down the Fiacaill ridge which is what ski cadets #3 and#4 did. Lower slopes were not recomended as they were an obstacle course. Ski cadets #1 and#2 took the home road and skied to above the van!

Heavy snow in the morning with the sun out by about 2

**FRESHIES**
Snow to Glenmore upwards in the morning. At 09: 45 at the Base station it was -0.5 By 2 the sun had come out and it was still below freezing at Mid station level. White Lady was best in the morning but due to heavy traffic it got all churned up. Best run in the afternoon was the Fiacaill traverse which had full cover and deep powder. It's possible to pick your way down the M1 but not advisable in new kit. At the top station Atomic UK were doing ski demos. Skicadets#3(Ian) tried out skins and some ski touring skis as well.

skicadets#1, #2 and #3 went up the summit path at the end of the day and skied from the summit to the bottom (Possible to ski down Fiacaill ridge using uptrack and run) Great snow on the Ptarmigan Ridge, White Lady and the Fiacaill traverse. A great day skiing!!!
