Ski Touring on Meallan Bhuide

Earlier in the season I skied Meallan Bhuide in the Drummochter Pass with Martin and Ivor. I returned there today with the Falkirk High Tops Team.

Despite the weather forecast, the mountain was clear most of the day (although the surrounding Munro’s were in cloud) and the winds were manageable. We had a 45 minute walk to gain the snow. Once on the snow conditions for skinning were good.

The descent was excellent. The snow allowed enjoyable effortless turns from the summit until low on the hill. The strong winds helped on the flat plateau area at the start of the ascent by blowing us along.
