Aonach Mor 10 Jan

Jamie B was out with a party from Lochaber College on Aonach Mor doing some winter skills. He repoerts plenty of fresh snow at the top of the nid and large loose snow cornices forming. No climbers in evience today on the East face as far as he could see. Perhaps not the best choice of venue for the weekend. Nick was over in Sneachda today and reportede less snow than expected on the walk in and better stability than expected on some of the routes. Not something to get complacent about and I'd still look hard at the forecast - http://www.sais.gov.uk/ and keep a close eye on conditions when out but it looks as if the wind the winds have scoured parts of the northern corries today.
