Glenshee Ski

While the Sunday walkers were enjoying the sun (see previous post), John & Ann were under the clouds further east. The day started out OK even though it was a bit too icy for good skiing. The skis went on almost at the car, followed by an icy climb up towards Glas Maol



Once up high there was still very good snow cover on the plateau


Looking back to Glas Maol
Then we looped around over Carn a Claise and Carn an Tuirc when the cloud started to come in. Not ideal ski conditions, especially as it looked like everywhere else was in Sun.


Heading up Carn an Tuirc
The descent down Turkey Gully gave a good run as usual and we managed to pick a way most of the distance back to the car, with a few Scottish ski moments on the way

Hummph...
