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 :-)

First white stuff in Scotland

I love it when you wake up completely oblivious to the fact that its snowed until you look outa the window and its all gone white! Not that there is that much snow up there this morning, but enough to give me a kick up the ass and persuade me that its gonna be an awsome season!!

Check it out - view out of my window looking at Nevis Range in Scotland this morning.... you could almost ski on that (cough cough)...

tomkennedy101, good photo - It's normally left to me to report on the snow at Nevis on here - I live 70 mins drive away..... Still got my season ticket form in last week and hoping to get into the 30's days skiing there this season... 17 days last year (due to an injury -lost 2 weeks and going on too many alpine trips) snowHead

II, I guess I might try and post photos more often this season. 21 days at nevis last year for me, into 30's is a good aim for this season I reckon! Trips abroad might get in the way of that again though, but can't really start complaining about that can we?! Think thats the end of the coldsnap for now... tomorrow looks super wet and windy - time to take up kayaking or windsurfin!!

There's always someone who wants to try and tempt me to use up copious amounts of petrol for sneaky weekends rolling eyes wink

At the moment it looks like I may have to attend a training course in Aviemore during Jan or March, so I guess I'll just have to do some skiing then Very Happy

it's back under a quid now, so fill yer boots (tank?), and floor it Very Happy

March could be fantastic in Aviemore / Scotland for a ski - a better punt than january certainly - there's been some epic March skiing the past few years (short-lived perhaps, but fantastic none-the-less)

The hills overlooking town have had a dusting this morning. Not enough yet to justify hiking up with my Scarpas & Fritschis but give it another couple of days and I could be doing my first October ski trip from my house Toofy Grin ....

Moffatross, that is a fantastic photo.

I was backpacking over Hart Fell in June and was astounded to see the Yorkshire Dales, Cheviots, North Pennines, the Pentlands, Gallow Hills, the Arran ridge Shocked , Ben Lomond and even the Ochils from the summit.
What a viewpoint and what a quiet area of the country.

There is about 5 - 10cm of freshies this morning in a band across central Scotland from Fort William to Aberdeen.

Not enough to open an October mountain.
