One plan I'm thinking of is a cheeky tour there this Saturday. But not if it's not in nick.

Can anyone see it, please?

In reply to Tim Chappell:

it has been in cloud quite a lot so i havent seen it for a while. it did have good cover up top but a big walk to get up to it. No info from the last few days im afraid.

There was good cover high up in the area last week, but you would have had to walk up to around 600m to get to anything usefully skiable.

In reply to Mark Bull:


This is often the case with Wyvis especially if approaching from Garbat. Those west facing slopes are often scoured meaning you need to gain a lot of height on foot.

The upper part of Coire na Feola can be the savior of a day up there as it holds the snow well and offers a number of lines of different angles with a short skin back up (or carry up with your DH skis in your case Tim!).

In reply to DaveHK:

Thanks. Coire na Feola is, in fact, my plan

In reply to Tim Chappell:

Racist.

I like blacks too. Heck, I'll even ski reds.
