In reply to EBclimbing: This is in reply to anybody for conditions:
Just been for a run up around Catstye Cam, Swirral Edge and Stiding Edge.
If your into Mixed,which is alot of the Lakes winter climbing now, then you will find something to climb.
Turf frozen mostly all around, but where it is deep, its frozen inside and spongey on the top. Snow cover is minimal, but for rock/buttress routes, the conditios look good.
Where water has been running over rock, there is lots of ice formed. So if you really want ice, you could pick your way up many fell sides, taking little ice formations on your way.
Classic gullys are not choked with snow & if they are, its windslab that has formed into good windblown neve....
If the weather continues as it has been, then lots of easier water courses will be frozen on medium to high gorund.
