High Windchill

27th February 2015

The usual squally showers today blowing much spindrift in the gusting winds ahead of the shower. Deep localised areas of windslab are forming as are cornices. The visibility was pretty good with cloud level generally above the summits. When the sun was out it felt warm for the first time this year!

A bit more snow than yesterday on Beinn Eighe
