Because Scottish skiers are hairy arsed tough guys who wouldn't be seen dead on corduroy.

They do get groomed trouble is they sometimes get a bit windswept as well.

montylad, some bits are deliberately not done because they're too steep or meant to be left au naturel. Sometimes it's cost, they don't have enough pistebashers to get round or enough staff to drive them. Sometimes it's just because the road's been blocked and they haven't got up to start pisting !
There's usually plenty of nice cord in good conditions though, if that's your bag.

Grooming those runs is a lot of work for Tam and his rake.

Because it is easier to spot the snow, heather and rocks when they are separate rather than all mixed up.
