@gavins125 Most expensive was petrol to get there and accomm, think it was about £30 each per night at b&b in Fort William, we have our own gear so after that it was ski passes at about £20 a day - a real good experience but slightly bizzare if you're unlucky with the conditions! - Good luck :)
@sinetwo yeah, was interesting, haven't boarded in anything like it before - great fun and very enjoyable terrain though, would like to go again if it were closer, just as quick to get to the alps though from here!
@sinetwo well, luckily the board is a little old and battle-scarred already! - its a 2002 model that I bought in '03, so has had a fair old pasting already! - but it only got a few scratches, nothing serious... Boarding in the rain is not a barrel of laughs as we found out at Glencoe!
Hi, think they build a park if there's enough snow - often there isn't I'm afraid - we went to three areas - day1 Nevis Range, closed due to wind (apparently often happens) so instead we went to Glencoe (great terrain but weather miserable) day2 we went to Aviemore, superb terrain & conditions but lots of queues.
Yeah, not bad looking ski areas, they could be much better with decent snow making, I know it snows a fair amount up there but it also blowsa hell of a lot too meaning it can get patchy quite easily. With decent snow making like the any temp one you could easily fill in the gaps and have a better quality product.

seem to recall about £20 a day but check the skiscotland website to be sure - think they do longer term deals
