Nevis Back Corries, Back Country Snowboarding.. Part 2

[chiefmungomartin]

Do you know what annoys me? The fact that there's mountains and snow conditions like this in the UK but a weekend up there would cost me almost as much as a week in Andorra.

This is now on my list of things to do before I die. Getting dropped off on the top of a mountain in the middle of nowhere with a bunch of friends would be awsome. How did you get up there?

You take the summit button to the top at Nevis Range then head up to the right instead of left to the main back corrie.

The weekend just past would have been perfect, so much snow but it was shut, too windy!

Nice powder! You look like you could do with a helmet cam, that way you can enjoy your boarding and not have to worry about holding the cam corder, also it would be a much more sturdy picture.

Helmet cam... too right, i did a bit of research into the best cam for all round activities but never followed it through with a purchase.... and every time i have one of my mini adventures (mountain biking, hill running, adventure racing) i regret STILL not having one!!

Maybe now is the time....

planning to go up next week, and was wanting to go on the back corries, just wondering how you get down from them - can you board all the way?
