A Scottish ski resort has recorded a dramatic turnaround thanks to last season’s bumper snowfall, turning a £40,000 loss into a £730,000 profit.

The operator of the Cairngorm ski slopes made the huge profit just two years after it was saved from financial ruin by being taken into public ownership.

More than 21ft of snow fell cumulatively at the top of the resort during last winter, and a total of 145,007 skiers enjoyed the record-breaking season, which ran from November 2009 to Midsummer Day in June.
