Anybody been up or near Ben Lawers in the last couple of days and able to comment on the amount of snow kicking about? I am hoping to go ski touring there tomorrow.

Thanks,
Colin

I don't have knowledge of the conditions, but a small team of us are also heading there tomorrow, think it'll be a good bet.

Photos I saw from yesterday looked nice.

Not been to Lawers, but the south side of Vorlich and Stuc a Chroin are pretty much bare (not been on them, can see them from my road.) N sides might be OK, but I'd doubt much on most of Lawers approach at least. This is just speculation on what I can see from my road, maybe someone else will have better details.

We were pretty much able to ski from the car park and link ribbons of snow to higher up, it was really excellent. Now the temp is up I'm not sure what's happened, but I think we're due to get splattered with snow again over the next couple of days.
