Goodbye 2022

Posted on 31st December 20223rd January 2023

Goodbye 2022, Hello Glencoe 2023. Day no. 2 of my snowboard season got off to a much better start. The weather was benign and there were clear spots in the sky. It would be a cold one, but there would be a new uplifting development on the hill.

First day of my season

Posted on 30th December 2022

Day 01. At last, the first day of my season of snowboarding at Glencoe Mountain Resort. The East has been getting the best of the weather so far, and Glencoe seem to be dealt a bad hand when it comes to snowfall. But it’s getting there!
