In reply to Birks:
Some useful up and down votes which I can only deduce mean the current consensus is 1 vote for blea water and 3 votes for Helvellyn.
As I said, not been to Blea Water before so looking for advice on if its worth the walk in.
Thinking is based on:
- Met office and Mountain forecast both about -3 for Helvellyn and High Street, although Blea Water is lower than Helvellyn by a few hundred metres
- Helvellyn temp probe has been at or below zero for a number of days
- Current forecast is colder than Jan, when there were multiple ascents of Blea Tarn
