Its all about timing.
15th January 2025
It was far wetter this morning than forecast due to the timing (see below). This rain has led to further depletion of the remaining snow patches. Not much change in sight for the Torridon area for the next couple of days with winds remaining Very Strong to Gale Force South-Westerly, and freezing levels well above the summits. We also have some overnight rain tonight, so it will be interesting to see what snow has survived by tomorrow afternoon.
Bouldering in the glen anyone?
Liathach from the East. There is probably more snow on this side, than in its Northern Coire’s.
Sgurr Ban on the East edge of Beinn Eighe, when the sun did finally come out this afternoon. Only ribbons of snow left along the ridge, none in the Coire’s.
Looking over to the Gleann Meinich hills, Strathconan from Fionn Bheinn. The hills on the left are around Corbett height. No sign of snow.
Fionn Bheinn forecast today. Sometimes the timing is off, as it was today. My cunning plan was to have a nice walk up Fionn Bheinn as the sun was breaking out…..but……See the piccies below.
Fionn Bheinn reality at around 11am today.
Fionn Bheinn summit at around 11:30am. Almost no snow on this high NE aspect to the right.
