Plenty of snow on Bleaklow Nik. I might be going up with my touring skiis on Sat
Could be tempted.... would be amusing as I haven't skied for almost two years and that was track cross country! Forecast is saying we might get some on Saturday. Do you bother with skins?
I will for this bescause I'm thibking of skiing the cloughs that come off White stone. they were hard pack with 2 inches of fresh snow. but steep enough to get some good turns in.
when and where would I need to meet you?
just sent you a PM
Well?????????????????????
no where near as much snow as mid week Andy but yes me and Nik met up and went up near Black clough over Bleaklow meadows ( where we were looking on Tuesday) and up to the wreck. Snow had the consistency of slippy granite and having touring skis I could skin up . Nik tried in Fishscales (skis not tights) and struggled with grip. very cold on top. A bit of fresh snow and it will be great up there. paths were very icy
