Avalanche Information for the Scottish Mountains

Early season snow

There are currently some significant fresh snow accumulations at higher elevations, mainly in the Cairngorms and Lochnagar areas. Care and good judgment should be exercised when travelling above the snow line as localised instabilities will be present. Further strong winds and precipitation will likely create further snow accumulations ahead of a potential thaw next week. Please be aware of general winter hazards and exercise caution in any more significant new snow accumulations
