.......hit a track off the summit of Cairn Gorm itself. Everything—rocks, fences, Gore-Tex—was rimed with ice. The scene resembled Hoth, the ice planet in the opening scene of The Empire Strikes Back......

We know last season left a lot to be desired but that article reads like there is never any snow or proper skiing...
Overall, all very negative and very disappointing.
