High winds,snow and heavy rain

Conditions have been and still are very wild in the Cairngorms today. The wind speed was over 100 mph and snow turned to heavy rain at lower levels by the afternoon. We did manage to get up to the Ciste car park today and our pit was dug up on the East side of the Ciste gully. Stormy weather is forecast for the rest of the weekend, its that time of year!
