Sunshine and snow showers
29th January 2019
It was a pleasant day with sunshine and snow showers. Since the warm and wet weather that we had on Saturday it has been cold and there has been a good amount of snow. High up this snow has been distributed by the wind which was Northerly on Sunday and South-Westerly yesterday and today. Lower down where it has been less windy there is soft snow on most aspects.
Trail breaking has been hard work. In many places the deepest snow is on the path and heading into Coire an Laoigh on Beinn Eighe today I gave up trying to follow it at around 300 metres.
