| Northern corries from Windy Ridge, last Wednesday |
We've had some more snow and low temperatures on the Casirngorms and other Munros across the Highlands last week. It's still lingering above 800m this weekend. Fresh snow on top of old snow. On Tuesday there was overnight snow, it continued into Wednesday. Up on the Cairngorm plateau you could have been fooled into thinking it was mid winter on Wednesday. Throughout the morning it snowed and a strong Northerly wind, coupled with poor visibility. A great winter day to be out. It actually cleared up by late afternoon but unfortunately we were down off the hill by 3pm.

| Fresh snow down to 800m |
The cold Northerly winds have been with us all last week. No sign of any long spells of warm, Spring sunshine. If you're thinking of some last minute winter hillwalking then now is your chance.
I've been up photographing Mo Charaid for a couple of days last week. I've still had my 5 warm layers on, even at 700m. Wrap up warm, winter continues......Oh and don't forget to swot up on your navigation, you'll be needing that too.
