Poster: A snowHead
|
Meant to post this last night and forgot so rather short notice, but Friday 3rd April at Nevis Range you can ski for the price of a Gondola Ticket which is £9.50 for adults.
There is still around 1400ft of vertical on offer and for the more adventurous there is some fantastic spring snow in Coire Dubh, while for the fit and prepared to hike out or those with touring kit it's possible to notch up close on 2000ft of vertical off the back in Spikes and Summit Gully (Ask Patrol for the latest info on snow conditions and stability).
^View down onto Climbers Col and the Braveheart below in Coire Dubh, Back Corries, Nevis Range.
Monday - Ski for £13 on CairnGorm Mountain
Adults ski for just £13 on CairnGorm on Monday and if you had a 90s season ticket for the 'Gorm and can produce it to the Ticket Office this Sat and Sunday you can ski for FREE!
All Top Basin Runs are complete and retain a good wide cover of spring snow, with excellent areas for novices in the Ptarmigan Bowl iself. Also in the Ptarmigan Bowl is the Vans Terrain park with a selection of hefty and not quite so insane kickers, and around six rails and boxes (number varies as some are getting reset every few days).
M1 RaceTrack, Traverse, 105 and Coire Cas are in good condition and the surface conditions has improved steadily with increasingly good granular spring snow on offer (Corn to those familiar with Yank terms, not slush like some places call spring snow!).
^Building an even bigger kicker in the Ptarmigan Bowl, Thursday.
