Just back from an evening run out on Helvellyn with Chris Stirling. Full on winter on the fells today. We scrambled up a very snowy Stepped Ridge on Brown Cove crags which pushed The Yaktrax to their limit before running on to the top. Whiteout and Blizzard conditions with a strong NE wind. The Petzl Nao stood up to the full blown winter mountain test. Knee deep snow in places. Snowline at 400M. Paddy Cave over at Mountaincicles was out for a run with the luxury of daylight today, check out his pictures here http://mountaincircles.blogspot.co.uk/

Dow Crag, Running and Climbing

A quick run out to Dow this afternoon. Dow is cold on hot day in summer, what was I thinking, a definite blast of winter in the air. Good to get on the rock.
