A few photo gallerys of various Scottish ski tours, powder days, gully descents! Even some hillwalking and cyling too...
If we have a fun day out then the plan is to upload a few pics here. Content updated sporadically when time and motivation to sit in front of a PC permits... Less blogging = more time in the real world.
