POWDER

There was overnight snow at all levels leaving Lochaber in a blanket of snow this morning. Back to ploughing through powder snow after abandoning the car half way up Glen Nevis. Amanda, Neil and I went up onto the NE corrie of Stob Ban today. We covered navigation, route choice and avalanche awareness. It was much quieter on the hill after yesterdays foray in Glencoe, with only two other folk on the hill. There is 15cm of fresh snow above 800m with light winds even the ridges were well ladend with snow.
