Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Looks like the freezing level is going to stay below the tops most of the week as well. Lets hope for plenty more this season.

D G Orf, Just think what it's like at the summit! A remember shouldering skis up there a few seasons ago: it was fairly calm at the Ptarmigan but blowing a blizzard at the top, and my misted up goggles froze the moment I took them off! I guess that's why they've repositioned the webcam from the summit to the Ptarmigan? Or is it still there Puzzled

Nadenoodlee, you poor thing. Ill again. I don't think you're drinking enough. I hear you have to drink 2 litres every day. Well that's over bottles of wine. With that on board the bugs get pickled before they can cause any trouble.

Wish I was going up this weekend. Sad

Webcams showing plenty of snow. Temperatures low for the next few days and snow showers forecast. Now we just need to figure out a way to keep it there for another month or so when the real winter weather begins.

Latest view from Ptarmigan webcam: click here.

At the time of posting this was not a 'crystal clear view', to coin an understatement. There seems to be a small amount of light penetrating the camera, and 50cm of snow on the upper lens. Maybe the funicular driver could be provided with a little lens cleaning device, so that he can nip out of the cab for this little duty during train stops?
