Posted: Sat 09 Jul, 2011 6:38 amI hope to go and play in the snow tomorrow. The wind could be the problem that keeps me at home as it is forecast to be windier than today, and my roof is rattling as I type!:( I would like to go for a quick half day trip up Sandbanks tier as there should be plenty of white stuff there

Posted: Sat 09 Jul, 2011 11:42 pmI was lucky enough to be able to play in the snow last Wednesday, before the wind came.
Started at Carr Villa heading up to Coalmine Crag - a superb walk in surprisingly deep snow.
Yes, a bit chilly, but a wonderful few hours.

Thank for that John - not sure about the comp though, and I couldn't really enter anonymously now!

It was certainly much thicker than we expected, but mercifully not too windy. Didn't know whether we were on the track or on top of the vegetation much of the time (until we fell through of course). Plenty of legs going down knee deep, with one lucky walker managing to go down much further until he had water in both boots
Never thought of snow shoes (don't possess any), though they would have been useful.
I'm usually quite good at falling but my wonderful Pacer poles saved me from any falls.
I did enjoy a bit of snowboarding without the snow board
Came away from that walk on a real high!
