Multi day tour around the Lakes.

:: Weather Conditions
Excellent on first 2 days, breezy yesterday, rough today with very strong NE Winds.
:: Snow Conditions and Distrubtion
Everything from boiler plate to deep windslab. In general, north and east faces bare, with the softer stuff on south and east, but some south faces also subject to freeze / thaw therefore icy. Best descent was St Sunday Crag to Deepdale, > 600m vertical. Other worthwhile descents from Fairfield into Grasmere and surprisingly, Green Gable into Warnscale Bottom. Today's wind will have changed the conditions considerably.
