Pretty much fine. Few small isolated spots of ice but nothing major.

Thinking of checking out Gardoms on Sunday having never been before. Is it likely to have a worthwhile amount of things dry to try (in the 6a-7a range?)

Gardoms South? (Suavito etc) area was as green as ye like two weeks back, can't comment on the other side though.

did anyone get out on the edges today, if so what would be the verdict for tomorrow?

Jim · February 11, 2010, 01:27:00 am

some ended up at eatswood after driving through blizzards

I dont know if anyone lives or drives through the peak district, was wondering what the conditions look like today, its hard to tell from sheffield.

Johnny Brown · February 17, 2010, 08:40:34 am

I reckon there will be dry rock to be found. There was yesterday, and the only precipitation last night was frost.

Hard frost in the Hope Valley this morning - although it has clouded over a little in the last hour.

Despite the fog, conditions were quite good today. However, it started snowing in the afternoon. Burbage is a blanc page once more.

rich d · February 17, 2010, 08:57:02 pm

Just driven through peak on way home from work in manc. There's a light covering of fairly damp snow - doesn't look good.

205Chris · February 19, 2010, 05:23:42 pm

After last night there's more snow at Stanage, Burbage and Higgar making most stuff un-climbable.

A bit further south the trackside boulder at Curbar was dry but GW etc. all wet.

Mark's roof area also quite damp at Gardoms.

Dolly · February 19, 2010, 05:36:01 pm

How did the main edge look at Curbar ?

Johnny Brown · February 19, 2010, 05:39:15 pm

Mostly dry, but damp streaks/ patches. Sunny aspects best bet.

Dolly · February 19, 2010, 05:41:53 pm

OK cheers
Do you reckon anywhere else looks OK ?

cofe · February 19, 2010, 05:55:11 pm

Bits were dry at froggatt but was suffering annoying run off

nik at work · February 19, 2010, 05:55:53 pm

Heading to the Peak tomorrow, am I going to be disappointed? Should I head elsewhere?

There was no snow around wetherby when I drove past today - so 'Cliff & bits of yorkshire near there would be OK I recon..

Falling Down · February 19, 2010, 06:11:36 pm

Where's Mr Popp? Cheshire sandstone might be in order....

cofe · February 19, 2010, 07:43:35 pm

Run off was the main party pooper nik so depends what you fancy trying.

nik at work · February 19, 2010, 08:27:10 pm

Hmmm, nothing in particular I was thinking of trying. As long as there's a chance of finding dry rock in the 7's (and maybe 8's) I'll be happy, got all day to sniff out the dryness.

cofe · February 19, 2010, 08:42:20 pm

There was dry rock about for real. I'd have thought plenty more tomorrow.

Somebody's Fool · February 19, 2010, 09:32:54 pm

Congleton Knoll was covered in damp snow tonight. Needs at least three days of fine weather before I'd bother tbh

slackline · February 20, 2010, 08:13:22 am

Looking good from Sheffield City this morning, heading out shortly, not sure where yet.

nik at work · February 20, 2010, 08:16:41 am

Cheers Slackers.

clgladiator · February 20, 2010, 08:38:13 am

was pretty good yesterday, though some bits were damp from melt water, but it was drying quickly.
