Snow a plenty
4th April 2018
It was fairly wintry in Glen Coe today. Overnight and continuing through the morning unusual amounts of snow fell mainly above 150 metres. The light North-Easterly winds backed to the North during the day and the freezing level was around 300 metres. Quite a contrast between morning and afternoon as the photos show below.

Driving through the glen this morning passing by Buachaille Etive Beag with Red Deer low down on the hill side trying to find their food

The pit site at mid-day…. 60cms of new snow lying on a refrozen icy crust. The grey coloured snow in the base of the pit is the icy refrozen layer
