We do not have the resources to produce this report on a daily basis, but will endeavour to update it as frequently as possible. All information is based on observation by our instructor on the hill. Winter conditions can vary rapidly, so an up to date weather forecast should always be consulted. One which gives freezing level, wind speed and direction at 3000' will give a good indicator of likely snow conditions, such as provided by the met office which you unfortunately have to pay for.
