3 day weather forecast 
Monday 8th February.  Weather forecast is for much the same as today with 20 mph winds, snow flurries, -4C and cloud clinging to the tops. We aim to have all uplift running. Update hopefully by 6.45 am.
Tuesday 9th limited supply of large snowboards over 150cm for hire
We have a shuttle bus booked every day so there will be the option of skiing back to the Ciste car park leaving at quarter past and quarter to the hour(not between 12.00and 13.00 for the drivers compulsory break), last bus from Ciste car park to Base station 16.45.
There's still great snow cover across all of the mountain with soft snow and some icy patches in places. We also have 
a funcross on the Fiacaill Traverse and some kickers and  rails on the Fiacaill Piste - Have Fun! The groomers have started work on building the main park in the usual place in the Ptarmigan Bowl

To try and speed up queues please have your ticket on display at all uplift.
Please feed the T-bars back into the boxes at the top ramps to prevent damage and delays.

The ticket office and Hire will open from 8:30am Monday to Friday and 8:00 at the weekends.
First Train up at 9.00 last train up at 15:45 and last down at 16:30.

Sledge Park is currently closed, we hope to have it open during holiday period.

To get out onto the slopes quicker the Ranger base issues tickets for internet bookings and vouchers. 
On weekends we have a cash booth located to the left of the Cas bar entrance (no hire)

Tune into Speysound (107.1) at the weekend for updates! or MFR 96.6 FM during the week.
