Scotland?

Cover looks good?! You did look at the link above, yes?..

As for travel times, according to Google maps - From my location;
Glencoe = 1 hour 53 minutes
Glenshee = 2 hours 7 minutes

They seem practically the same
So desperate to go skiing, but i'm pondering on whether its the desperation or not which is making me want to risk goin up there..



P.S;
Hello, my name is Andrew and I am a ski addict.
There, feels better..

My name is Dave, I am a ski addict, and I live in Scotland. Wow, that feels good! :lol:

Yes I did look at the link above. Have you ever skied Glenshee? I have ;)

My experience of the drives is totally different although in fairness if I am going from Glasgow it is the West End (I don't know where you are...).

Google Maps/Sat Nav take you the totally wrong way for Glenshee along a horrific road btw, if you are going go through the centre of Perth and take the A93 through Old Scone.

I have skied Glenshee once before - Just last year infact and I can tell you just now - there was no way as little snow as I see in that webcam view :P

Thanks for the tip on the route to drive Pablo and thank you for your other information too.
I'm more the Kings Park area of Glasgow - At Hampden Park essentially;

I have come to the conclusion - Wake up around 0830 (when the 'resorts' open) and phone both Glencoe & Glenshee Ski Center's and ask for a live weather report..
If good/decent - Leave pronto
If not - No wasted journey and I can be happy not having wasted time/money

Yeah.. I got up at 0830, looked outside and it was chucking it down.. So just went back to bed, got up not long ago and checked the webcams for Glencoe/shee - Horrible! :)

I feel better now.. I'll be off to the gym today instead ;)

thats a shame - i was up in Aviemore at the weekend and the conditions at Cairngorm on Saturday were brilliant! Mid station was reporting depths of 210cm, and a few cm forecast for tomorrow or the next day.

If you can make it that far north in the next couple of weeks, the conditions should still be pretty good. Got my fingers crossed for one last trip up before the end of April

Yeah i'm keeping an eye out on the conditions over the next coming weeks - last year i'm sure it was reported that the best skiing weather Scotland had ever seen was in May - so there's still hope!

yeah and there is the end of year party in june/july time up the back of one of the corries, not sure what its called-bbq and a kicker
think the guy that runs winterhighland organises it?
