Evening all!

Just wanted to know if anyone has been up to scugdale (specifically scots crag) over the last few days and if its snow free?

I remember going up a couple of years ago from leeds where we had little snow but scugdale was absolutely covered!

Thanks in advance!

I went mountain biking today on the moors, it was pretty covered in snow and if the snows melted then the crag might be wet

Banked out. You'll need skis to get in and the ice routes are staggering!

The NYM have avoided the heavy snow fall that was seen at other places last week, I doubt they'll be any snow left by the weekend at Scugdale, there's very little on the ground now even in some high places, you'll be fine!

Often the problem with Scugdale in winter is not the crag itself but the road leading to it.
