Snow. Once More.....

(1/2) > >>

Bush Tucker Man:
Do any of the members around the West Yorkshire (& surrounding counties) know of the existance of any snow-falls?
Not neccesarily blocked roads, but open land with public access, as 'Small Child' is constantly grumbling ever since seeing Gloucestershire on the news earlier in the week.

Places like Snake Pass, Woodhead Pass, saddleworth always seem likely candidates. And of course the old favourite; Holme-Moss

strapping young lad:
maybe last week but not now

im sure i saw stories of snowfall in glossop i think and on the snake pass

vtrdaz:
snake was definately closed earlier this week

I think it was either Tuesday, or Wednesday.

I remember going over with my parents once & it being almost to the tops of the road-side marker poles :shock:  :shock:

vtrdaz:
when i was in the scouts when i was a MUCH younger chap i actually slept on the snake just below doctors gate in a snow hole.
We got so far up in an old 2a rag top and then walked the rest - fantastic night but VERY cold - especially as we only had polywarm "hypothermia" sleeping bags!(so called because you would almost certainly suffer from hypothermia if you slept in one!!! :lol: )
