Cairngorms - Play



Bryn and I headed East today in search of the holy grail they call sunshine. As we drove into Aviemore it seemed we were in luck as indeed the sun did poke through the clouds. Once parked at the ski centre the skies had opened and it was snowing at the car park. We walked up into Sneachda but extremely strong winds persuaded us that if we managed a route the top out and descent would be the living end - so being soft Southern types we went to the cafe in Aviemore! I took a photo of the crag for those thinking of heading up for the weekend. All of the main gully lines are full and it has been snowing all morning with temperatures at freezing at about 800m. The forecast for Saturday does not look great but Sunday should be good. Have fun and be safe!
