Spittal Mini Tour

Had a great day skiing today. We left the house around 10am and got stopped at the snow gate at the Spittal of Glenshee. It was not a surprise. It was on the traffic report. We knew the staff at Glenshee where working hard to get the lifts open for the afternoon. So we picked a route from the Spittal where we could see the gates from and skinned up, hoping to get a lap in before the gates opened. 



We skinned for about an hour and a half and from the summit of Creag an Dubh Shluic we could see the gate was open. 



So we skied lovely soft snow back to the car. 



That was not the end of our day. We got our half day passes and did laps on sunny side until the Tiger got the better of us. 



Up to the top of Claybockie then we skinned up to the top of the Tiger for a ski to finish. 



Good day was had.
