Winter is close!

Three Peak Challenge groups shivering on Ben Nevis summit!

There's been lying snow on the highest summits such as Ben Nevis, Ben MacDui and Braeriach over the past week or so.
Our own record breaking local skier Helen R managed to complete her 36th consecutive month of skiing yesterday, on somewhat limited but fresh snow. Three years in a row now, so well done Helen!
Snow enthusiast Helen and I happen to share the same birthday and this maybe explains both our winter snow obsession? See Helen's Facebook photos here. Some good photos on Glenmore Lodge's Facebook page too!
A good hard frost today and further snow flurries in the Cairngorm's mean that full on winter can't be far off.
