A light dusting of snow reached Aberdeenshire last night and some more showers have been blowing through today.

Skiers at HNOC
5 to 7cm of snow have fallen in the Clash but cover is very patchy. Alex and Hugh Standen completed the Haute Route and has claimed the golden boot. Jason Williamson and Colin Miller also successfully made it round the route. BNDS members also took advanage of the snow during a training session at Huntly Nordic and Outdoor Centre.
