A cloudier day with occasional snow flurries. Not too cold, hovering around freezing at 2500 feet I reckon. Snow is still in good shape. Got lost in the cloud at one point, overshooting the exit of Happy Valley.

Gutted that I’ve been in the office all week. However Saturday looked good. Indeed once the car park it was looking like a bluebird day. Continued cold temperatures have kept the snow in superb shape. Scattered cloud came over every now and then getting heavier in the afternoon. Trying out my new boots for the […]

It was a beautiful day and visibility meant I could see the rescue helicopter winching folk off the corniced ridge of […]
