Winter Fun
Yesterdays paddle started of in wonderful conditions (see picture), and finished in slightly more challenging circumstances as heavy snow started falling.
So the snow has arrived and I see some of our fellow Buccaneers have been busy. GB has been engaging in Snow Ball fights, whilst Dirty D has been up in the mountains, enjoying Winter Munro bagging. Beaujolais has even tried out his Cross Country Ski’s- ordered last year when the snow was at its worst, and arriving with the thaw. Great fun. Did 4 laps of the garden. Cannot wait to try out in a more challenging “Off Garden” environment. Cortisone meanwhile has been on the Piste.
Conditions currently look good for a paddle this afternoon after work. However the roads are the issue with huge amounts of black ice. The council looking to ensure they do not run out of grit this year… by not actually using any.
Great picture ! The Loch is at it’s finest this time of year without a doubt.
Angus has some wee nordic ski things called Arctic hares, he was out at 7:25 am [!!] skooting up and down the drive, round the garden etc. You realise that now you’ve got your skis on the snow will dissappear…
