Have you skied in Scotland before?
Years of ski racing up there made me vow never to ski up there again, even though some how it feels closer than going to the Alps!
Cons
1. Its very expensive. Lift passes are higher than the alps when you consider the length of runs, lifts, ques etc. Accomodation isnt any cheaper than abroad either, and you will probably damage your equipment (rocks). You will also need good quality gear, the weather is much harsher in Scotland than it tends to be in the alps.
2. Conditions. You can have some fantastic clear days, but these are few and far between, tends to be white out, raining, 100 mph wind…. and then of course there can be snow one day and none the next.
Pro’s
1. Makes you a better skier as the conditions are that bad.
2. You can buy fish & chips ( you cant do that in France!)
3. You can buy a pint of bitter in a pub.
