SNOW HOLING AND CLIMBING IN THE LAKES







The winds had eased a tad today and I was out in the beautiful and less frequented Matterdale Valley near Ullswater. Excellent full on winter conditions again, even managed a snow shelter in the big drifts and found some wonderful ice to play on on Angletarn Pikes which are at a lowly 600m, just goes to show that we're in for another cracking winter if you get these conditions in The Lakes. Back up to the Highlands on Friday and Winter skills courses are booking up steadily.
