Through the Clag - Skiing on Nevis Range & Ben Nevis Jan 2012
Posted Tue, 01/24/2012 - 19:16A compilation of headcam footage taken mainly in the clag at Nevis Range and Ben Nevis with highlights including Ledge Route on Ben Nevis and a skier getting sluffed down Easy Gully. Sometime soon we'll get some nice snow and sunshine on the same day! Enjoy!

Posted Wed, 01/25/2012 - 09:05Nice wee vid. About 3 mins in there is a lift? Where is that, don't recognise it?......

Posted Wed, 01/25/2012 - 09:11Bit of teetering there soulrider. I'm guessing you're happier on skis than on crampons ;o). Nice vid. Is that all Gopro footage? The stuff right at the start and end in the sunshine looks really good......

Posted Wed, 01/25/2012 - 09:45Oh the cheek snowfox! But fair point though - I'll try to make it look a bit more elegant next time! skimonkey - The lift is the top of the Braveheart chair over the back of Nevis Range.

Posted Wed, 01/25/2012 - 10:08Aha, that's why I don't recognise it! The famous Braveheart Chair. I've yet to ever get a shot on it, in fact, has it even run in the last few years? Shame as it looks like the only place that will still have snow after today will be over the back! Rumour has it, it is 6 degrees at the top station.

Posted Wed, 01/25/2012 - 14:35It's all in the camera angles. I reckon their making it look way more sketchy than it is ;o)

Posted Wed, 01/25/2012 - 17:54Great footage, really liked that.... didn't realise there had been so much snow already this year! Looking forward to the version in the sunshine when it comes...

Posted Wed, 01/25/2012 - 19:16Great little film! You're right Snowfox it was very clever making the climbing look that hard...
Re: Through the Clag - Skiing on Nevis Range & Ben Nevis Jan 2012
Posted Wed, 01/25/2012 - 23:37A great video. I was at Nevis last week - sunny and a little icy but with usable snow on the Goose. Nevis is still my favourite place to ski in Scotland...
