Once on the hill the though snow clouds started rolling in again sending flurries down from a grey sky with occasional blue patches and bright spells. Fresh snow had been fallen […]

Glencoe World Freeride Tour Qualifier
Day 24 of Scottish season 25/16. More light winds and the promise of bright conditions were just what I wanted as Glencoe had invited me to photograph the action during the Coe Cup part of the Scottish Freedom Series and a qualifier for the World Freeride Tour. Conditions are superb across the mountain so a […]
