Day 7 of the season at Glencoe Mountain Resort was fair, dry and icy. Conditions were hard in what snow was available, but still a good day.

Day 6 of my season at Glencoe Mountain Resort was an icy one. The summit was the place to be while we patiently wait for more snow to arrive.

Day 4 of my snowboard season at Glencoe. The forecast looked hit or miss with winds expected and heavy rain the week prior. Warm temperatures didn’t bode well either. But, this would be my last weekend before I head off to the Alps on holiday. Needless to sat the Coe did not disappoint.

Uplifting day at Glencoe

Posted on 2nd January 20233rd January 2023

Day 3 at Glencoe Mountain Resort, The weather was good with scattered cloud and sunny spells so when I got to the summit, Happy Valley lay before me. Lots of little pockets of wind blown powder to hop between. With my lightest solid board on my feet, I felt like a spring chicken.
