Northern Cairngorms Blog & Mountain Info

At this time the Scottish Avalanche Information Service is continuing to produce avalanche reports, providing vital information for our Emergency Services.  The provision of these reports will be continually reviewed in line with government policy and the welfare of our Forecasters.

The Scottish Government has stated that “essential travel only must be undertaken” in order to protect our rural communities and prevent extra pressure on our Emergency Services.   Now is the time to avoid unnecessary mountain activities and consider our social responsibilities.

Although snow cover is good in the Cairngorms underfoot conditions are generally icy with serious run out potential on steep slopes.
