Snowing on Kinder since sunday!!! Ferk how much snow is there on Kinder at the mo? How deep is that stuff – I need to snowboard it!! Anyone been up an over snake pass, whats it looking linke on Bleaklow?
There was quite a bit but the rain on Thursday did knock it back quite to just drifts. Looking out the window at Brown Knoll this morning and I’d go for more than a dusting but less than a good covering. You can see tussocks of grass through the snow in the fields next to the Pennine Bridleway through the Roych.
Except they were up there at 4pm gritting as I was driving home, that said.. it had turned to ice, there was a que of 30 cars at the top of winnats not going down it…
4pm – I rest my case, the reaction seems to be leave it and let the cars compact the snow on the road between Chapel and Mam Tor. Worst bit is when they do eventually plough into Edale its often just stops a couple of 100m past the bus stop.
Atleast I’ve got snow chains and winter tyres were definately the best thing I ever bought for the car.
