Some photos here from a great morning at the Hole of Horcum. Knee deep soft powder snow (well, knee deep for me, calf deep for everyone else.)
It started off as a Whiteout but later on the sun burned off the fog and I got some photos. As I headed back to the car I met two guys from the team, setting out on their snow shoes. I went back out with them. I must invest in a pair of snow shoes for the next time we get conditions like these.
On the North Yorkshire Moors snow shoes are much more useful than crampons. If we’d of had a call out they would greatly speed up our response time. If we had to carry out a stretcher they would be a great help.
So, please book yourself on one of our courses, I have purchases I need to make!
