A soggy day
31st March 2017
Persistent rain with hill mist and strong winds, it felt very much like an unpleasant wet summers day. Â Large snow patches are surviving on coire back walls. Â Snow also remains at plateau levels, the ground was still frozen and firm where recent snow patches had retreated. Â Glazed ice also surrounded some snow fields – despite mild conditions my ice axe was useful.
