What Can I say, if you’re into landscapes and snow they you really need to head to Glencoe. Its simply stunning :thud: as Del showed, but pictures cant do it justice. Drove up today and had lunch in Glencoe Village then a we drive round to Kinlochleven then back over the Ballachulish Bridge and back the same road home.

Roads are quiet and dry as del said although the Ski place was jumping. Also passed the sport relief selebs on there bikes when going up Loch Lomond it was Big Miranda and a Guy on the Bike at the time but Fern and the crew were at Luss as they were all pulling out when I went past this Morning.

Some pic’s, and yes I had to get the same shot del :thumbs up:……………….That snow is still there hanging but I could not go near there was a guy in a big blue jacket sitting on a stool. :hand:

Car so needs a wash now but well worth it, even with those few road works on the Loch:argh:

Superb! Told you it was awesome :thumbs up:. Your pics are great and I'm sure I recognise that "Passing Place" sign :yes nod:.

Yes, the roadworks on Loch Lomond-side were a pain :argh:, but the drive on those fantastic roads kind of makes up for them. Glad you had a good day!

Loving the pics, looks like there is an epic amount of snow! Its strange here, there is nothing in the city, but as soon as you go outside the city boundaries, theres snow everywhere lol!

:blush: Copy cat! I hold my hand up to that :smilewinkgrin:

As you said the roads were clear and dry I thought of how many times I’d been down that Road , Hail, Fog, Heavy Rain and blazing Summer sunshine but never with the Snow. Jaw dropping at times. I was half expecting to see Ray Mears up there.

Had to be done!

The Ski place was jumping and a few were out with all the Camera gear, tripods etc and me with my wee Lumix T5.
