Hi Folks. Just wondering if anyone can advise on what current conditions are like in the area and what ongoing disruption there is following the winter storms. I'm gonna be in the area next week and am thinking primarily about areas like Feshie/Insh (definitely), Burnside (likely), Laggan (trail centre and over the other side of the road - probably), Badaguish (maybe). Had a wee look at trailforks but quite a bit either is well out of date or not on the map anyway.

Seems like there's going to be enough winter up high to put aside any more adventurous plans on two wheels, but doesn't look great for any spring ski touring either (yet). Given the forecast I'll probably try and bring both with me regardless but handy to know if any areas are best avoided currently. Thanks for any advice.

Nobody? I see more snow overnight on the webcams (and a dusting here above 300m) but the ski areas and sais not really suggesting it making a big benefit to the snow situation...

Hi. We have fresh snow in the garden here in Aviemore this morning. Not sufficient to be enough for skiing, just enough to keep the trails soggy.

There are trees down in a few areas - Clifftop trail in Inshriach is currently unusable. Other than that I've not seen any major trail blockages.

I think Wolftrax has been sorted so should be clear. They'll know at the café/shop, which has just re-opened.
