Our friends at The Boarder have this story on Glencoe

Maybe the first Scottish resort to become a casualty of climate change?

If that's true, it's a real shame. Despite it's small area Glencoe
offers probably the most interesting terrain of all the Scottish
centres. Lets hope they get a bumper snow fall and change their minds.

Yup, some nice steep stuff there, and good "undulations" is that Flypaper
the steep run? always used to try and get a day in Glencoe and one in the
back corries in March or April depending on snow conditions :^(

So r.s.r.e beat the print media by 2 days. Those journalists should
spend less time down the pub. :-)
