Is there anybody with some recent information on the conditions in glencoe area for climbing. i have a chance to get a lift there this sunday for a week. Wanted to know whether it would be worth my while as i am coming from ireland. If not i would hold off for when things settle. Not very familiar with scottish winter and the area in general.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

There is a video on the climbnow facebook page which will give you a good idea of the extensive snow cover. Currently, movement is time consuming in the deep snow but things are firming up above 650 metres.
