The freeze-thaw cycle made for firm groomers, with Rankin’s Return and Mugs Alley riding well. Less busy than Friday, but plenty of familiar faces out enjoying the turns. As the mist rolled in, I called it early—saving the legs for Sunday, when we should see a little fresh snowfall.

Friday Clarity
Friday shred at Glencoe! A fresh dusting of snow, moody skies, and surprisingly great visibility made for an epic day on the mountain. Best turns? The Wall in the morning and some fast carving under the Rannoch Chair. Not the lightest snow, but still an absolute blast! Hoping for more laps this weekend before the weather changes.
We Back
The first dose of the Coe in 2025, lovely grippy wind packed powder above mid-mountain.
Sorry Glencoe
It’s not cheating if we’re on a break. Sorry Glencoe, but with now snow in the west I had to up-sticks and head east to make the most of some recent snowfall.
I left Glasgow super early and arrived in the car park at Cairngorm Mountain by 8am.
Desperado
25th February – I don’t know what I was expecting, but I was so desperate to go snowboarding, I gave little thought to the experience I would have on the downhill.
The Gathering
Poor conditions prevail and the guys at Glencoe along with Snowpark Scotland, pulled a freestyle park together on the sledging slope for The Gathering. On the upper mountain Main basin continues to be the largest area on snow on the hill.
Lucky for Some
Day 10 for me snowboarding at Glencoe.
Things were starting to look desperate on the mountain regarding snow cover. I had friends visiting with their kids and some had very little experience on snow. Hw would they get on?
