There’s a neat FB group where the last remaining winter snow patches in the Scottish mountains are reported. Occasionally patches still survive the full year. Ian Cameron has a really interesting book on chasing and documenting these pockets of snow.

Thanks very much for sharing this, Ash. It sounds like a book I’d enjoy. The BBC also published an interesting short video about Cameron a couple of years ago: https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2017/sep/18/scotlands-sphinx-snow-patch-is-in-its-throes-in-pictures
