    stayed in Fort William last year for a weekend. Lifts were closed due to wind. Skiing could be could if if snow is still thee but it is a gamble !!

    I been out on Ben Nevis, near Fort William and in Glenshee, conditions are very hard to predict much in advance. Its good if your in the area or for a weekend trip.

    Went a few years ago to cairngorm and had a great couple of days skiing! It's a gamble though, don't go over expecting your guaranteed snow. Or if it is snowing there's a good chance the slopes wil be closed because it can get fairly wild up there! Might be a good idea to go on a last minute kind of thing. Check the snow and the forecasts for the weekend and see how it's shaping up.

    Oh and another thing - it can be fairly cold, bring a balaclava!
