No April fool today – beautiful weather persists all day. Clear skys once again lead to lovely spring conditions. A firm pack with corn snow was available in the Main Basin. Flypaper and Spring Run were open but the walk out put me off. Good fun messing about in spring conditions. The Glencoe park looks […]
Statuses
Friday at Glencoe
The first live blog from the slopes. Motorway delays held us up, but we needn’t worry. Lifts closed on arrival due to high winds. Lots of snow around and a bit misty as we wait out the storm. This must be what its like in Alaska! I should be so lucky! 11:15 am: Coe Blown […]

Now I can watch telly, sleep and surf the net. Everything a guy needs! Still need gas and electricity meters changed. All in good time. Probably do […]
