The snowpack has continued to thaw and diminish overnight and throughout the day, with very warm, wet and windy conditions. Â The freezing level was well above the summits, and it rained heavily for most of the day. Where snow remains, it is saturated and mostly stable. Â The rivers and burns will be hazardous to cross.
A break in the cloud allowed a glimpse of Creag Dhubh.
