The bottom of the gunbarrel was roped off with a tiny bit of the burn still visible... but to the left hand side of the fence was full of unpisted powder

   
Ever wondered where ther Ptarmigan cam is or what they were digging out on Thursday morning? Now you know

The West Wall Poma had no queue at all and great waist deep powder in some places.

Looking down from the top of the Cas T-bar

The Aonach Bowl was full of deep powder, with plenty of natural hits.

Where was everyone? The biggest queue I found was two deep on the Cas T-bar

Sums up my day : )

The car park runs were complete and offered a more hospitable option for beginners.

Mixed over head conditions. Anywhere from the Top of the Cas below seemed to be below the cloud and out of the wind. Up in the top bowl, it was pretty horrible at tiimes, with many a child cry about the icy snow getting blasted into their face.
:: Snow Conditions & Info
It's was pretty much ride wherever you wanted today, with the exception of the Ciste Gully (closed for safety reasons). Off the pisted runs, the snow was knee deep powder, allowing you to make your own tracks all the way down the hill. On the pisted runs, the snow was still soft and ideal for taking the odd tumble on. Lower down it was a little harder in the busier places (eg. burnside) but hey, at least you could ride top to bottom.
