Visitor Reviews of Cairngorm

Just got back from New Year in Aviemore. I've been going every year now for about 5 yrs and never had much luck with the weather, this yr was differant and they had over 30cm snow in 1 night.
The only thing that isn't different is the way the place is run.
The snow plough doesn't start moving 'til all the snow enthusiasts are stuck on the road trying to get up to the mountain, hence he can't plough it.
Never buy a ticket for a full day at Cairngorm, as anything over 3" of lying snow and the resort goes to pot and you can't get to the mountain (even in a 4x4) until after lunch.
After getting to the mountain you see the piste basher parked up and each run has been pisted 1 width( about 4 metres).
I love the Cairngorm resort and take my family there at least once a yr (over 6hr drive) but the place is run by idiots so don't expect too much.
p.s the 3 hrs of powder I did get was brill.
