….I wouldn’t bother, unless you have your own skis, already have a lift pass, and don’t mind queues everywhere.
We went to Glenshee today. Snow conditions were pretty good and the bad weather doesn’t bother me, but by the time we arrived, queued for ski hire, queued for a lift pass, went to the first poma, stood in a queue, watched it break down, stood in the queue for while they tried to fix it, were told it was going to be out for ages, joined a huge queue for the chair, stood there for 15 minutes hardly moving, watched the poma come back on, went and queued there again and finally got onto our first run it was a good two and a half hours from arriving at the car park.
Rest of the day wasn’t much better. The folk running it are lying through their teeth about the number of tows and chairs actually on. It’s nothing like what the website says. I reckon the queue to ski time ratio was about 15 to 1.
No wonder folk prefer skiing abroad. I know that the infrastructure is old, and that weather conditions are unreliable (I’ve skied in Scotland off and on for over 20 years), but today was just a joke.
Don’t say you haven’t been warned.
Rant over. I had to get that off my chest, and I’m not registered with any ski forums.
