Summit run was full-width. Best run of the day, but also the busiest

Fairway below the Quad was the best of the lower runs, but scraped lower down

Ski-able all the way down to the Gondola station, though thin and narrow towards the bottom

Weather closed in later on, but the Goose was excellent on the upper section

Link was easily passable, but quite heavily banked

Looking across Carn Mor Dearg towards Ben Nevis in the morning

Far West - passable at the top third, decent at the bottom, terrifying in the middle

View from the top of the summit button over Spectre

:: Weather Conditions
Superb overhead in the morning with blazing sunshine and occasional cloudy spells. By the afternoon, the cloud had once again started to envelope the top of the summit runs and temperate rose above freezing at the gondola station.
:: Snow Conditions & Info
Summit runs and the Goose were the picks of the day - skier-packed soft powdery snow all the way down to the Goose halfway point. Decent cover on the lower Goose, but with a number of icy patches and rocks poking through the surface. The Fairway was the best of the Quad chair runs, although all runs were scraped and thin lower down. The Link was complete with a fresh cover of snow, but heavily banked. All lower runs were ski-able with some easily avoided scraped/icy areas.
