Fri 4 April 2008 Brendan

Good centre for its size. Terrain park often as good as the bigger centres in Scotland (e.g. Cairngorm). Snow making machines are also a plus (whereas they don't have them at Cairngorm). The Buzzard run is great after a heavy snowfall. A bit difficult to get to. Generally not a place for the advanced freerider with only 140m vertical drop between the top and base.
