Creag Meagaidh conditions – 13 January 2018

The Creag Meagaidh conditions today was a little windy, the wind definitely started to pick up a little around noon.  The snowline started around 450-500m, and the path was pretty straightforward to follow.  Lots of small pockets of slab around, and the consistency of the snow was wet, until you got higher.  No blue sky today, what a shame. Some fog shrouding the mountain tops.
