I was skiing up in Glen Doll forest on Saturday, which was a bit damp
but otherwise okay.


Teesdale was fantastic once again on Sunday. It's looking good once
again for this weekend - can we make it 3 in a row?

Fingers crossed, with the Braemar Telefest on Sunday. I was up at
Glenshee yesterday, and though not as good as last week there was still
reasonable cover and the belt of rain passing over Scotland was falling
as snow over the ski area. Wet snow, yes, but at least snow!

We had tremendous fun last year anyway, despite a fraction of the cover
available yesterday.

Pete.

Best snow for many years here in Yorkshire.


And no snow in Oslo, Norway all winter. That snow was obviously
misdelivered, please return immediately. ;-)

No way! As I've missed my annual Norway trip, I feel perfectly
justified in keeping the snow here (even if it has taken all winter to
arrive).

There has been a thaw this week, but it's still very white above 500m
& there should be fresh snow and colder temperatures this weekend.

Touring on our highest hill, Whernside last week was great!
