Arghhh choices choices choices. I'm supposed to be going to the Gorm for a meet up tomorrow... but 4ft of powder is just too tempting!!
Sounds like the wind may be a bit of an issue though. How was it today? |

anyone got a heads up on what the conditions are like today at nevis?
the Nevis range webby says the lifts are closed due to wind
any locals there know what the next few days hold weather wise?
most forecasts saying the wind will drop over the next few days
got a chance to hit the Nevis range saturday and monday so was
wondering what the chances of it being open are
thanks for any advice |

Apparently the strong winds are supposed to die down by this afternoon. Wind speed of 15mph and sunny intervals tomorrow.
Saturday is cloudy with showers. |
