Thought id best put this video on, Richard, Mike and Tony had a ski touring day. I was the driver!
They went up from the main Sierra Nevada ski town and followed the pistes towards Montebajo area. They reached the Loma de Dilar and then enjoyed a fantastic descent along the Loma before descending to the Casa Forestal de Cortihuela near Trevenque in the Cumbres Verdes.
A great ski! Conditions were excellent in the main once the initial ice had softened in the hot sun. The long traverse below the Loma de Dilar was hard snow in places, but lower down the snow was still in good nick. A final descent threading our way between shrubs and small trees needed some caution before we reached the collado del Matas Verdes.
This linear excursion is recommended as a day trip provided you have car backup at both ends or a friendly non-skiing driver. I had a great walk up to meet them and got to take lots of photos which when they are sorted I shall let you see them.
