 Poster: A snowHead
|
Spring has sprung in the south 
Now that the Met Office has stopped providing long range forecasts, who knows when the next snowfall will arrive down south.
Anyone in the Snowdonia area that can give me the lowdown on snow conditions please?

Was up there last weekend.
Lots of snow above 600m - to the point where we couldn't reach the summit - got to about 850m and it was extremely difficult without Crampons.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

Mike Pow, on bike (I would add 'unfortunately' but it wasn't...cos it was bloody fantastic!  ). Warmed up a lot in the past 2 weeks. Back then we woke up to -3.5 deg.C in the morning.
