Guess what.....more snow!!!


Both our access gates onto the site, photo taken yesterday, as you can see we are still pretty snow bound and I will have to cancel the rest of the training this week, again!!!
Some of our Club members did manage to get on site and had some fun but it was pretty limited, just too many big snow drifts up there.

Snow again!

We may have to cancel the rest of the training booked for this week, yesterday was cancelled when I tried to get up the access road to the training area to find about 100 yards of waist deep snow drifts. If the access road is this bad then just what is it like higher up on the site itself.
I may try and walk the dogs up to the top of the hill today, it's still snowing now!

Busy March

Seems to be a sudden rush on training over the past few weeks, some of it pretty extreme in the snow! Mostly from renewables energy companies and power line firms, all good work and smiles all round. Back to tree planting next week and hopefully spring will arrive.

Spring Snow

A week ago I was enjoying a glass of wine sitting outside soaking up the spring sunshine but today we have snow and at times blizzard conditions! Pic is the visiting group today, they had a great time and thoroughly enjoyed the snow.
We have a planning application now in with Perth + Kinross Council (pkc.gov.uk) to move the 4x4 Reception across the road to the bottom of the access track, please support it if you can. Ref is 13/00143/FLL

Snowbashing

Couple of photos; one of the hill access road today while walking the dogs, snow drifts higher than the fences! The other photo of a very bleak wintery looking Land Rover roof pond. I think we will make our Mad on Mud Club snow bashing event this Sunday 27th from 10am, the forecast is for more cold weather so the snow should hang around till then, we may have to use the North gate to get onto site!! I will have a BBQ going for those who let me know they are coming and will weather permitting try and do the BBQ at 1230 on the hill. Tay 4x4 Club are also on our site this weekend so it should be fun.

Correct view!!

Woops I uploaded the wrong one!! It has been a pretty wet and wild winter so far, plenty of good pics and comments on Mad On Mud Club facebook page and also Scottish Off Road Driving Centre page.

The view from the top last Sunday.
