Just finished a very enjoyable week over at Glenmore Lodge undertaking MIC training. It was a strong team full of good characters, so many laughs were had and overall the weather wasn't too unkind to us.
The Northern Corries are still holding lots of snow, ( the boulders, toblerone stone and rescue box in Sneachda are still well and truly buried), most of which is now very firm. There are however small pockets of soft to medium windslab on all aspects, mostly above 900m.
The crags are heavily rimed so protection generally requires a lot of digging. Strong climbers have been backing off medium grade routes in the event of such difficulty.
Ski touring looks awesome.
