Me and John had another great day at Swinhope. Weather was nice and clear, but the winds were pretty stiff.
Lifts were busy, so after a few runs we hiked our way in search of some steep, off-piste gullys in the distance; nice lines but the wind was a killer. Due to the high winds, the access road got covered in snow drifts, so it took me 2hr 50 mins to get home, normally a journey of 45 mins!!
Karl and Graham report having a good but windy day in the lakes. Staying low, they Climbed Launchy Gill III *** then moved onto Shoulthwaite Gill V 4 **
Apparently Graham fell through the Ice into the stream, chest deep!! Brrrrrr. I wish I'd been there to witness it Graham (snigger)
