Not blubberhouses but we had a race on Simons seat last night. In general the open fell is quite clear but all of the snow has been dumped in tracks etc. Allow more time and some diversions but you should be ok.

Any one been over Black hill from Crowden or even Bleaklow. I've got some friends over form the flat lands and they'd like to go for a hilly walk...!

Snow clearing up in the areas you mentioned.

i was three miles north and climbed a 12 foot drift this aft. I bet black hill will still be interesting in places.

On the very tops I guess there will be some good patches of snow to contend with but it's not totally covered anymore.

Thanks Wycoller. Even at the 'dizzy' heights of c680ft in the undulations of Woodhall Hills between Leeds and Bradford there were some drifts yesterday so I will definitely be allowing more time and prepare for diversions as necessary higher up.

Ho-hum...midgley moor cancelled...parkrun cancelled...Wessenden looks ok after having a drive by this morning, go for a long run tomorrow I think...at least I have confirmed entry to Fairfield Horseshoe...surely it will be warm by May???

Today the snow has finally been sort of cleared in the lane outside our house, 13 days after it fell. This is something of a record in the 22 years we've been living here.
